the Apace HTTP Server.
2. Relevant releases
VMware Workstation 6.5.2 and earlier,

Several flaws were discovered in the way third party library libpng
handled uninitialized pointers. An attacker could create a PNG image
file in such a way, that when loaded by an application linked to
libpng, it could cause the application to crash or execute arbitrary
code at the privilege level of the user that runs the application.
