enhancements for the following system versions:
*  Mac OS X v10.3.4 "Panther"
*  Mac OS X Server v10.3.4 "Panther"
*  Mac OS X v10.2.8 "Jaguar"
*  Mac OS X Server v10.2.8 "Jaguar"

CAN-2004-0598, CAN-2004-0599

Impact:  Malicious png images can cause application crashes and could
execute arbitrary code

Description:  A number of buffer overflows, null pointer dereferences
and integer overflows have been discovered in the reference library
for reading and writing PNG images. These vulnerabilities have been

against these flaws.
