Descriptions

bdf/bdflib.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 identifies property names by only verifying that an initial substring is present, which allows remote attackers to discover heap pointer values and bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted BDF font.

bdf/bdflib.c en FreeType anterior a 2.5.4 identifica los nombres de propiedades con solamente verificar que una subcadena inicial esté presente, lo que permite a atacantes remotos descubrir valores de punteros de la memoria dinámica y evadir el mecanismo de protección ASLR a través de una fuente BDF manipulada.
