Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Double Free
EUVDB-ID: #VU18323
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6952
CWE-ID:
CWE-415 - Double Free
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input within the another_hunk() function in pch.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into using in with the affected application, trigger a double free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected package patch to the latest version.
