Description
This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-12122)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the ILBM image rendering functionality due to heap-based buffer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
2) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14440)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the ILBM image rendering functionality due to stack-based buffer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14441)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the ICO image rendering functionality due to integer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
4) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14442)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the BMP image rendering functionality due to stack-based buffer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14448)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the XCF image rendering functionality due to heap-based buffer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
6) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14449)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the XCF image rendering functionality due to double free. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14450)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.The weakness exists in the GIF image parsing functionality due to buffer overflow. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it and execute arbitrary code.
