Descriptions

The headerLoad function in lib/header.c in RPM before 4.9.1.3 does not properly validate region tags, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a large region size in a package header.

La función headerLoad de lib/header.c de RPM anteriores a 4.9.1.3 no validan apropiadamente las etiquetas "region", lo que permite a atacantes remotos asistidos por el usuario provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de tamaño extenso de "region" en una cabecera de paquete.
