Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Heap-based buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU20920
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 4.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-3977
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the gif2rgb() function (util/gif2rgb.c) in giflib 5.1.2. A remote attacker can use background color index in a GIF file 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.
MitigationUpdate the affected package giflib to the latest version.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU75499
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11490
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the DGifDecompressLine function in dgif_lib.c in GIFLIB because a certain "Private->RunningCode - 2" array index is not checked. A remote attacker can trigger a 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.
MitigationUpdate the affected package giflib to the latest version.

3) Division by zero
EUVDB-ID: #VU30817
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-15133
CWE-ID:
CWE-369 - Divide By Zero
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
In GIFLIB before 2019-02-16, a malformed GIF file triggers a divide-by-zero exception in the decoder function DGifSlurp in dgif_lib.c if the height field of the ImageSize data structure is equal to zero.
MitigationUpdate the affected package giflib to the latest version.
