Descriptions
UnRTF allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code as demonstrated by a file containing the string "{\cb-999999999".
UnRTF permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario tal y como fue demostrado por un fichero que contenía la cadena '{\cb-999999999'.
Michal Zalewski reported an out-of-bounds memory access vulnerability in unrtf. Processing a malformed RTF file could lead to a segfault while accessing a pointer that may be under the attacker's control. This would lead to a denial of service or, potentially, the execution of arbitrary code. Hanno Bck also reported a number of other crashes in unrtf.
