Leptonica’s Comedy of Errors: When Code Exposure is No Laughing Matter

Leptonica, an image processing library, is caught with its “code” down, as multiple vulnerabilities open the door to arbitrary code execution. With no known workaround, users are advised to upgrade ASAP.

Hot Take:

Well, well, well, if it isn't our friend Leptonice getting caught with its pants down again! This time, it has multiple vulnerabilities that could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. Remember folks, in the world of cybersecurity, the only thing worse than getting caught with your pants down is getting caught with your code exposed. So, if you're using versions of Leptonica greater than or equal to 1.81.0, it's time to zip up!
