Descriptions
Multiple integer overflows in imageop.c in the imageop module in Python 1.5.2 through 2.5.1 allow context-dependent attackers to break out of the Python VM and execute arbitrary code via large integer values in certain arguments to the crop function, leading to a buffer overflow, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-4965 and CVE-2008-1679.
Múltiples desbordamientos de entero en imageop.c en el módulo imageop en Python de v1.5.2 a v2.5.1 permite a atacantes dependientes del contexto romper Python VM y ejecutar código de su elección mediante valores enteros grandes en ciertos argumentos a la función crop, llevando a un desbordamiento de búfer, una vulnerabilidad distinta a CVE-2007-4965 y CVE-2008-1679.
