Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2010-133

Posted Jul 16, 2010

Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2010-133 - Memory leak in the png_handle_tEXt function in pngrutil.c in libpng before 1.2.33 rc02 and 1.4.0 beta36 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via a crafted PNG file. Buffer overflow in pngpread.c in libpng before 1.2.44 and 1.4.x before 1.4.3, as used in progressive applications, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG image that triggers an additional data row.
