Descriptions
softmagic.c in file before 5.17 and libmagic allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access and crash) via crafted offsets in the softmagic of a PE executable.
softmagic.c en archivo anterior a 5.17 y libmagic permite a atacantes dependientes de contexto causar una denegación de servicio (acceso a memoria fuera de rango y caída) a través de desplazamientos (“offsets”) manipulados en el softmagic de un ejecutable PE.
A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension handled search rules. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to crash or consume an excessive amount of CPU.
