Descriptions

Integer overflow in the make_filter_table function in pixops/pixops.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.31.5, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 40.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.2 on Linux, Google Chrome on Linux, and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via crafted bitmap dimensions that are mishandled during scaling.

Vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de entero en la función make_filter_table en pixops/pixops.c en gdk-pixbuf en versiones anteriores a 2.31.5, tal como es usado en Mozilla Firefox en versiones anteriores a 40.0 y Firefox ESR 38.x en versiones anteriores a 38.2 en Linux, Google Chrome en Linux y otros productos, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica y caída de aplicación) a través de dimensiones bitmap manipuladas que no son manejadas correctamente durante el escalado..

An integer overflow, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way gdk-pixbuf, an image loading library for GNOME, scaled certain bitmap format images. An attacker could use a specially crafted BMP image file that, when processed by an application compiled against the gdk-pixbuf library, would cause that application to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application.
