Descriptions
The parse_encoding function in type1/t1load.c in FreeType before 2.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a "broken number-with-base" in a Postscript stream, as demonstrated by 8#garbage.
Vulnerabilidad en la función parse_encoding en type1/t1load.c en FreeType en versiones anteriores a 2.5.3, permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (bucle infinito) a través de un 'broken number-with-base' en un stream Postscript, según lo demostrado por 8#garbage.
It was discovered that FreeType did not properly handle some malformed inputs. This could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted font files.
