Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in the Mac_Read_POST_Resource function in base/ftobjs.c in FreeType before 2.4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted length value in a POST fragment header in a font file.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en la función Mac_Read_POST_Resource en base/ftobjs.c de FreeType anterior a v2.4.0 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (fallo de la aplicación) o posiblemente ejecutar código a su elección a través de manipular el valor longitud en un fragmento de cabecera POST de un fichero de fuente.
