The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the "intT1_EnvGetCompletePath()" function in lib/t1lib/t1env.c. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow when an application processes an overly long string in the "FileName" parameter. The vulnerability is reported in version 5.1.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Grant only trusted users access to applications using the library.
