Descriptions

The libarchive library in FreeBSD 6-STABLE after 2006-09-05 and before 2006-11-08 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed archive that causes libarchive to skip a region past the actual end of the archive, which triggers an infinite loop that attempts to read more data.

La biblioteca libarchive en FreeBSD 6-STABLE posterior a 2006-09-05 y anterior a 2006-11-08 permite a atacantes locales o remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (agotamiento de CPU) mediante un fichero mal formado que provoca al libarchive saltar a una región mas allá del final del fichero, que dispara un bucle infinito que intenta leer mas datos.
