Description

Multiple integer overflows in LittleCMS (aka lcms or liblcms) before 1.18beta2, as used in Firefox 3.1beta, OpenJDK, and GIMP, allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-190•Integer Overflow or Wraparound

    The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.

Affected Systems

  • gimp•gimp

    < 2.9.2

  • littlecms•little_cms

    ≤ 1.17

  • mozilla•firefox

    3.1:beta1
