Updated Cairo packages that resolve a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
Cairo is a vector graphics library designed to provide high-quality display and print output.
An integer overflow flaw was found in the way Cairo processes PNG images. If an application linked against Cairo processes a malicious PNG image, it is possible to execute arbitrary code as the user running the application. (CVE-2007-5503)
Users of Cairo are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.
