Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Forced Integer Overflow
    This attack forces an integer variable to go out of range. The integer variable is often used as an offset such as size of memory allocation or similarly. The attacker would typically control the value of such variable and try to get it out of range. For instance the integer in question is incremented past the maximum possible value, it may wrap to become a very small, or negative number, therefore providing a very incorrect value which can lead to unexpected behavior. At worst the attacker can execute arbitrary code.

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200707-09 (GIMP: Multiple integer overflows) Sean Larsson from iDefense Labs discovered multiple integer overflows in various GIMP plugins (CVE-2006-4519). Stefan Cornelius from Secunia Research discovered an integer overflow in the seek_to_and_unpack_pixeldata() function when processing PSD files (CVE-2007-2949). Impact : A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted image file, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running GIMP. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.
