Impact:
Denial of service via network, Execution of arbitrary code via network, User access via network
|
|
Version(s): 0.22 and prior versions
|
Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in gdk-pixbug. A remote user can create a specially crafted image file that, when processed by an application using gdk-pixbug, will cause the application to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.
Mandrake and Red Hat reported that a remote user can create a specially crafted BMP image file that will cause gdk-pixbug to enter an infinite loop [CVE-2004-0753].
It is also reported that Chris Evans discovered several overflows. A heap-based overflow and a stack-based overflow reside in the xpm loader [CVE-2004-0782, CVE-2004-0783]. An integer overflow resides in the ico loader [CVE-2004-0788]. A remote user may be able to trigger the overflows to cause an application that uses gdk-pixbug to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code.
|
Impact:
A remote user may be able to cause an application using gdk-pixbug to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application.
|
Solution:
No upstream solution was available at the time of this entry.
