CVE-2015-2305 – regex: heap overflow in regcomp() on 32-bit architectures
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2015-2305
Integer overflow in the regcomp implementation in the Henry Spencer BSD regex library (aka rxspencer) alpha3.8.g5 on 32-bit platforms, as used in NetBSD through 6.1.5 and other products, might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large regular expression that leads to a heap-based buffer overflow. Desbordamiento de enteros en la implementación regcomp en la librería Henry Spencer BSD regex (también conocido como rxspencer) alpha3.8.g5 en las plataformas de 32 bits, utilizado en NetBSD hasta 6.1.5 y otros productos, podría permitir a atacantes dependientes de contexto ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una expresión regular grande que conlleva a un desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica. A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in the regcomp() function of Henry Spencer's regular expression library. An attacker able to make an application process a specially crafted regular expression pattern with the regcomp() function could cause that application to crash and possibly execute arbitrary code. • http://blog.clamav.net/2015/04/clamav-0987-has-been-released.html http://lists.apple.com/archives/security-announce/2015/Sep/msg00008.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-05/msg00005.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2015-05/msg00026.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-updates/2015-04/msg00002.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-updates/2015-05/msg00024.html http://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=143403519711434&w=2 http://openwall.com • CWE-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound •
