"A buffer overflow was discovered in libgd2's font renderer. By
tricking an application using libgd2 into rendering a specially
crafted string with a JIS encoded font, a remote attacker could read
heap memory or crash the application, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2007-0455)

Xavier Roche discovered that libgd2 did not correctly validate PNG
callback results. If an application were tricked into processing a
specially crafted PNG image, it would monopolize CPU resources. Since
libgd2 is often used in PHP and Perl web applications, this could lead
to a remote denial of service. (CVE-2007-2756).

description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
