Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in the process_copy_in function in GNU Cpio 2.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large block value in a cpio archive.

Desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica en la función process_copy_in en GNU Cpio 2.11 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio a través de un valor de bloque grande en un archivo cpio.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in cpio's list_file() function. An attacker could provide a specially crafted archive that, when processed by cpio, would crash cpio, or potentially lead to arbitrary code execution.
