Jhead, a tool for manipulating EXIF data embedded in JPEG images, allowed attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands by placing them in a JPEG filename and then using the regeneration -rgt50, -autorot or -ce option. In addition a buffer overflow error in exif.c has been addressed which could lead to a denial of service (application crash). For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 1:3.04-6+deb11u1. We recommend that you upgrade your jhead packages.
