PARTIAL Summary
Buffer overflow in the progressive reader for libpng 1.2.x before 1.2.4, and 1.0.x before 1.0.14, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a PNG data stream that has more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk.

NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DSA-140.NASL description Developers of the PNG library have fixed a buffer overflow in the progressive reader when the PNG datastream contains more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk. Such deliberately malformed datastreams would crash applications which could potentially allow an attacker to execute malicious code. Programs such as Galeon, Konqueror and various others make use of these libraries. In addition to that, the packages below fix another potential buffer overflow. The PNG libraries implement a safety margin which is also included in a newer upstream release. Thanks to Glenn Randers-Pehrson for informing us. To find out which packages depend on this library, you may want to execute the following commands : apt-cache showpkg libpng2 apt-cache showpkg libpng3 last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 14977 published 2004-09-29 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2004-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/14977 title Debian DSA-140-2 : libpng - buffer overflow code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Debian Security Advisory DSA-140.

The libpng package contains a library of functions for creating and manipulating PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image format files. PNG is a bit-mapped graphics format similar to the GIF format. Versions of libpng prior to 1.0.14 contain a buffer overflow in the progressive reader when the PNG datastream contains more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk.
