Descriptions

Integer underflow in the cupsRasterReadPixels function in filter/raster.c in CUPS before 2.0.2 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a malformed compressed raster file, which triggers a buffer overflow.

Desbordamiento de enteros en la función cupsRasterReadPixels en filter/raster.c en CUPS anterior a 2.0.2 permite a atacantes remotos tener un impacto no especificado a través de un fichero de raster comprimido malformado, lo que provoca un desbordamiento de buffer.

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way CUPS handled compressed raster image files. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when passed via the CUPS Raster filter, could cause the CUPS filter to crash.
