CVE-2017-18233 Exempi vulnerabilities
Title: Exempi vulnerabilities
Summary: Exempi could be made to crash or run programs if it opened a specially
crafted file.
It was discovered that Exempi incorrectly handled certain media files. If a
user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted
file, a remote attacker could cause Exempi to hang or crash, resulting in a
denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
