Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-14378)

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7039)
The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the tcp_emu() function in tcp_subr.c in libslirp. An attacker can issue specially crafted IRC DCC commands in EMU_IRC, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8608)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within tcp_subr.c file in libslirp. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application that is using the affected version of library, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
