Descriptions

Integer overflow in unace 1.2b allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a small file header in an ace archive, which triggers a buffer overflow.

Desbordamiento de enteros en unace 1.2b permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de una cabecera de fichero pequeña en un archivo ace, lo que provoca un desbordamiento de buffer.

Jakub Wilk discovered that unace, an utility to extract, test and view .ace archives, contained an integer overflow leading to a buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted ace archive, an attacker could cause a denial of service (application crash) or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.
