Descriptions

Integer overflow in the soup_base64_encode function in soup-misc.c in libsoup 2.x.x before 2.2.x, and 2.x before 2.24, allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string that is converted to a base64 representation.

Un desbordamiento de entero en la función soup_base64_encode en sopa-misc.c en libsoup 2.x.x antes de 2.2.x, y 2.x antes de 2.24, permite a atacantes dependientes del contexto ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una cadena demasiado larga que se convierte en una representación en base64.
