Descriptions

The "insert-blank-characters" capability in caps.c in gnome-terminal (vte) before 0.28.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption and crash) via a crafted file, as demonstrated by a file containing the string "\033[100000000000000000@".

La capacidad de "insertar caracteres en blanco" en caps.c en gnome-terminal (vte) en versiones anteriores a 0.28.1 permite a usuarios autenticados remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de CPU y memoria y caída) a través de un archivo manipulado, según lo demostrado por un archivo que contiene la cadena "\033[100000000000000000@".
