Descriptions

Integer overflow in imlib2 before 1.4.9 on 32-bit platforms allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via large dimensions in an image, which triggers an out-of-bounds heap memory write operation.

Desbordamiento de entero en imlib2 en versiones anteriores a 1.4.9 en plataformas de 32-bit permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una imagen de grandes dimensiones, lo que desencadena una operación de escritura de memoria dinámica fuera de límites.

Jakub Wilk discovered an out of bounds read in the GIF loader implementation in Imlib2. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly obtain sensitive information. Yuriy M. Kaminskiy discovered an off-by-one error when handling coordinates in Imlib2. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
