NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream glib2 package and not the glib2 package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

An error within the "parse_rollei()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) within LibRaw versions prior to 0.19.1 can be exploited to trigger an infinite loop.
