Descriptions
scanner.c in LibYAML 0.1.5 and 0.1.6, as used in the YAML-LibYAML (aka YAML-XS) module for Perl, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and crash) via vectors involving line-wrapping.
scanner.c en LibYAML 0.1.5 y 0.1.6, utilizado en el módulo YAML-LibYAML (también conocido como YAML-XS) para Perl, permite a atacantes dependientes de contexto causar una denegación de servicio (fallo de aserción y caída) a través de vectores que involucran la envoltura de líneas (line-wrapping).
An assertion failure was found in the way the libyaml library parsed wrapped strings. An attacker able to load specially crafted YAML input into an application using libyaml could cause the application to crash.
