Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
xmp_toolkit versions before 1.9.0 do not catch C++ exceptions raised inside XmpFile::close, which leads to undefined behavior, typically a process abort. The source gives no details on attacker requirements; the issue arises when close fails, for example from file I/O errors caused by a race condition. Upgrade to xmp_toolkit 1.9.0, which handles the exception; callers who need the error can use the new XmpFile::try_close method.
