Descriptions

Multiple integer overflows in the read_bitmap_file_data function in io-xbm.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.26.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a negative (1) height or (2) width in an XBM file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Múltiples desbordamientos de enteros en la función read_bitmap_file_data de io-xbm.c en gdk-pixbuf antes de v2.26.1 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (por caída de la aplicación) a través de un valor negativo en la (1) altura o (2) anchura en un archivo XBM, lo que provoca un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica (heap).
