Hi,
an integer overflow was reporting in exiv2's EXIF parsing 
code which results in a heap-based buffer overflow.
This is CVE-2007-6353 please include the CVE id in your 
changelog if you fix the bug.

Because our stable security team is not able to share 
information and work together with the testing security team 
I can unfortunately just forward you to the bug trackers of 
other distributions.

Please see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=425921
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202351

They also include a patch for the issue.
Kind regards
Nico
