Like I said, it Sharninder can be done but it will be a little complicated. It's not complicated at all -- you need a kernel, the format of which doesn't vary between distributions, and perhaps a System.map file, which also doesn't vary between distributions. Just be sure that the contents of /lib/modules don't get overwritten by two distributions installing the same version of the kernel; that's a bit unlikely though.

When processing a broken PNG image, the error handling routine will access memory that is out of bounds when creating an error message. Depending on machine architecture, bounds checking and other protective measures, this problem could cause the program to crash if a defective or intentionally prepared PNG image file is handled by libpng. This could be used as a denial of service attack against various programs that link against this library. The following commands will show you which packages utilise this library and whose programs should probably restarted after an upgrade: apt-cache showpkg libpng2 apt-cache showpkg libpng3 The following security matrix explains which package versions will contain a correction. Package stable (woody) unstable (sid) libpng 1.0.12-3.woody.5 1.0.15-5 libpng31.2.1-1.1.woody.5 1.2.5.0-6 We recommend that you upgrade your libpng and related packages. Upgrade Instructions - wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
