COMPLETE Summary
Multiple integer overflows in xzgv 0.8 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via images with large width and height values, which trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, as demonstrated in the read_prf_file function in readprf.c. NOTE: CVE-2004-0994 and CVE-2004-1095 identify sets of bugs that only partially overlap, despite having the same developer. Therefore, they should be regarded as distinct.

NASL family Gentoo Local Security Checks NASL id GENTOO_GLSA-200501-09.NASL description The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200501-09 (xzgv: Multiple overflows) Multiple overflows have been found in the image processing code of xzgv, including an integer overflow in the PRF parsing code (CAN-2004-0994). Impact : An attacker could entice a user to open or browse a specially crafted image file, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user running xzgv. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 16400 published 2005-02-14 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/16400 title GLSA-200501-09 : xzgv: Multiple overflows code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200501-09. # # The advisory text is Copyright (C) 2001-2015 Gentoo Foundation, Inc. # and licensed under the Creative Commons - Attribution / Share Alike # license.
