Descriptions

The donote function in readelf.c in file through 5.20, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP 5.4.34, does not ensure that sufficient note headers are present, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted ELF file.

La función donote en readelf.c en file hasta 5.20, utilizado en el componente Fileinfo en PHP 5.4.34, no asegura que suficientes cabeceras de notas están presentes, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (lectura fuera de rango y caída de aplicación) a través de un fichero ELF manipulado.

An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way the File Information (fileinfo) extension parsed Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted ELF file.
