Buffer overflow in the DoCommand function in jhead before 2.84 might
allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
(CVE-2008-4575).

Jhead before 2.84 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files
via a symlink attack on a temporary file (CVE-2008-4639).

Jhead 2.84 and earlier allows local users to delete arbitrary files
via vectors involving a modified input filename (CVE-2008-4640).

jhead 2.84 and earlier allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands
via shell metacharacters in unspecified input (CVE-2008-4641).

This update provides the latest Jhead to correct these issues.
