Under certain conditions, the system interprets the unverified temporary file contents and extracts commands from it. This could allow an attacker to modify signed RPM files in such a way that they would execute code chosen by the attacker during package installation. It was found that RPM could encounter an integer overflow, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow, while parsing a crafted CPIO header in the payload section of an RPM file. This could allow an attacker to modify signed RPM files in such a way that they would execute code chosen by the attacker during package installation.
7e87068c24ee66145d63ce115342713c291da259fa85a94842f8e9f9641c874bUbuntu Security Notice 2479-1 - Florian Weimer discovered that RPM incorrectly handled temporary files. A local attacker could use this issue to execute arbitrary code. Florian Weimer discovered that RPM incorrectly handled certain CPIO headers. If a user or automated system were tricked into installing a malicious package file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause RPM to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
