Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-7353)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Integer overflow in the png_set_unknown_chunks function in libpng/pngset.c in libpng before 1.5.14beta08. A remote attacker can use a crafted image to trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-7354)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

Multiple integer overflows in libpng before 1.5.14rc03 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted image to the (1) png_set_sPLT or (2) png_set_text_2 function, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-12652)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in libpng when checking the chuck length against the user limit. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted PNG image and crash the affected application.
