Type:
security
Severity:
Important
Release date:
2026-09-02 10:14:03 UTC
Description:
* SECURITY UPDATE: chunk data smuggling in the APNG push-mode reader - debian/patches/CVE-2026-40930.patch: consume the chunk body and the CRC field in the three inter-frame discard paths of png_push_read_chunk (pngpread.c), so that bytes inside an ignored chunk are no longer reinterpreted as a fresh chunk header on the next png_process_data call, and pass the real chunk length to png_ensure_sequence_number in png_push_read_IDAT (pngpread.c), so that an fdAT chunk shorter than its own sequence number no longer underflows idat_size and swallows the rest of the stream as frame data - CVE-2026-40930
