(RHSA-2005:811) gtk2 security update

The gtk2 package contains the GIMP ToolKit (GTK+), a library for creating
graphical user interfaces for the X Window System.

A bug was found in the way gtk2 processes XPM images. An attacker could
create a carefully crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause an
application linked with gtk2 to execute arbitrary code when the file was
opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has
assigned the name CVE-2005-3186 to this issue.

Ludwig Nussel discovered an infinite-loop denial of service bug in the way
gtk2 processes XPM images. An attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM
file in such a way that it could cause an application linked with gtk2 to
stop responding when the file was opened by a victim. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CVE-2005-2975
to this issue.

Users of gtk2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues.
