Hi Steve, vendors,

   libpng upstream has released latest v1.4.3 and v1.2.44 versions,
addressing two
security issues:
[a], out-of-bounds write to memory -- this already got a CVE id of
"CVE-2010-1205",
[b], memory-leak bug, involving images with malformed sCAL chunks,
which could
    lead to an application crash.

Steve, could you allocate a CVE id for the [b] issue?


Please use CVE-2010-2249 for issue [b].

oss-sec, png-mng-implement ... do you have testimages or a reproducer for the sCAL issue?

It would be helpful for our QA :/

Ciao, Marcus
