Several math overflow errors were found in NetPBM by Al Viro and Alan Cox. While these programs are not installed suid root, they are often used to prepare data for processing. These errors may permit remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code in any programs or scripts that use these graphics conversion tools.
