Log Message:
Security fix for CVE-2006-3376:
"A vulnerability in libwmf can be potentially exploited by malicious
people to compromise an application using the vulnerable library.
The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow error when
allocating memory based on a value taken directly from a WMF file
without performing any checks. This can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow when a specially crafted WMF file is
processed.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code."
