Descriptions
ppm2tiff does not check the return value of the TIFFScanlineSize function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PPM image that triggers an integer overflow, a zero-memory allocation, and a heap-based buffer overflow.
ppm2tiff no comprueba el valor devuelto por la función TIFFScanlineSize, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una imagen PPM modificada que provoca un desbordamiento de entero, una asignación zero-memory, y un desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica.
