This update fixes various security vulnerabilities affecting the SDL2_image library, listed below. The fixes are provided in SDL2_image 2.0.4, which depends on SDL2 2.0.8 or later. As such, the SDL2 and SDL2_mixer libraries are also updated to their current stable releases, providing various bug fixes and features.

The security vulnerabilities fixed in this update are the following:

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the ILBM image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted ILBM image can cause a heap overflow resulting in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0488, CVE-2017-12122)

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the ILBM image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted ILBM image can cause a stack overflow resulting in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0489, CVE-2017-14440)

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the ICO image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted ICO image can cause an integer overflow, cascading to a heap overflow resulting in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0490, CVE-2017-14441)

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the BMP image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted BMP image can cause a stack overflow resulting in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0491, CVE-2017-14442)

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the XCF image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted XCF image can cause a heap overflow resulting in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0497, CVE-2017-14448)

A double-Free vulnerability exists in the XCF image rendering functionality of SDL2_image-2.0.2. A specially crafted XCF image can cause a Double-Free situation to occur. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability. (TALOS-2017-0498, CVE-2017-14449)
