Hi,

The lcms2 2.4 -> 2.5 version upgrade fixes various crashes that
could be used by attackers to crash (NULL ptr deref) programs using
lcms2, like e.g. OpenJDK 7

This was found in the embedded copy within OpenJDK7 first, then
merged to lcms2.

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/2013-July/023895.html

 lcms2 related issues in there: * S8007925: Improve
cmsStageAllocLabV2ToV4curves * S8007926: Improve cmsPipelineDup *
S8007927: Improve cmsAllocProfileSequenceDescription * S8007929:
Improve CurvesAlloc * S8009654: Improve stability of cmsnamed

All covered by lcms2 in this commit (I think): 
https://github.com/mm2/Little-CMS/commit/91c2db7f2559be504211b283bc3a2c631d6f06d9

 These probably can get just 1 CVE, although I do not know the
OpenJDK IcedTea side of the story.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=826097#c9 has the
research into more of these stability commits in lcms2 by my
colleague Stanislav Brabec. Not sure if they should get seperate
CVEs or not.

Ciao, Marcus

Please use CVE-2013-4160 for this issue.
