The new algorithm takes the number of tags +into account to make it harder to abuse by cases using shallow recursion +but with a very large number of tags. This improves on commit 5d28011c +which wasn't sufficient to counter this kind of case. + +The limitation in the previous fix was discovered by Laurent Delosieres, +Secunia Research at Flexera (Secunia Advisory SA84652) and is assigned +the identifier CVE-2018-20030. +--- + NEWS | 1 + + libexif/exif-data.c | 45 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- + 2 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) + +diff --git a/libexif/exif-data.c b/libexif/exif-data.c +index e35403d..a6f9c94 100644 +--- a/libexif/exif-data.c ++++ b/libexif/exif-data.c +@@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ + #include <libexif/olympus/exif-mnote-data-olympus.h> + #include <libexif/pentax/exif-mnote-data-pentax.h> + ++#include <math.h> + #include <stdlib.h> + #include <stdio.h> + #include <string.h> +@@ -350,6 +351,20 @@ if (data->ifd[(i)]->count) { \ + break; \ + } + ++/*!
