Hi,

The following vulnerabilities were published for exiv2.

The advisories are a little misleading, they mention it as
new in v0.28.0, but that only applies to the "main" branch,
where it was removed and later reintroduced.

The 0.27-maintenance branch _does_ include the Quicktime decoder

CVE-2024-24826[0]:
| Exiv2 is a command-line utility and C++ library for reading,
| writing, deleting, and modifying the metadata of image files. An
| out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 version v0.28.1. The
| vulnerable function, `QuickTimeVideo::NikonTagsDecoder`, was new in
| v0.28.0, so Exiv2 versions before v0.28 are _not_ affected. The out-
| of-bounds read is triggered when Exiv2 is used to read the metadata
| of a crafted video file. In most cases this out of bounds read will
| result in a crash. This bug is fixed in version v0.28.2. Users are
| advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
| vulnerability.

CVE-2024-25112[1]:
| Exiv2 is a command-line utility and C++ library for reading,
| writing, deleting, and modifying the metadata of image files. A
| denial-of-service was found in Exiv2 version v0.28.1: an unbounded
| recursion can cause Exiv2 to crash by exhausting the stack. The
| vulnerable function, `QuickTimeVideo::multipleEntriesDecoder`, was
| new in v0.28.0, so Exiv2 versions before v0.28 are _not_ affected.
| The denial-of-service is triggered when Exiv2 is used to read the
| metadata of a crafted video file. This bug is fixed in version
| v0.28.2. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known
| workarounds for this vulnerability.
