Mandriva- Advisories MDVSA-2008:040: Updated SDL_image packages fix vulnerabilities

Advisories MDVSA-2008:040: Updated SDL_image packages fix vulnerabilities
The LWZReadByte() and IMG_LoadLBM_RW() functions in SDL_image
contain a boundary error that could be triggered to cause a static
buffer overflow and a heap-based buffer overflow. If a user using
an application linked against the SDL_image library were to open a
carefully crafted GIF or IFF ILBM file, the application could crash
or possibly allow for the execution of arbitrary code.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
