Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-15385)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The store_versioninfo_gnu_verdef function in libr/bin/format/elf/elf.c in radare2 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (r_read_le16 invalid write and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted ELF file.


2) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-15368)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the wasm_dis function in libr/asm/arch/wasm/wasm.c when processing a crafted WASM file that triggers an incorrect r_hex_bin2str call. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
