Descriptions

bzlib.c in bzip2 before 1.0.5 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file that triggers a buffer over-read, as demonstrated by the PROTOS GENOME test suite for Archive Formats.

El archivo bzlib.c en bzip2 versiones anteriores a 1.0.5, permite a los atacantes remotos asistidos por el usuario causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo) por medio de un archivo diseñado que activa una lectura excesiva del búfer, como es demostrado por el conjunto de pruebas PROTOS GENOME para Formatos de Archivo.
