Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-4373)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the g_string_insert_unichar() function in glib/gstring.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


2) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-40909)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to tamper with application's behavior.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition if a directory handle is open at thread creation. A local user can exploit the race and force the application to load code or access files from unexpected location.


3) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-47038)

CWE-ID: CWE-193 - Off-by-one Error

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


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

The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can trigger an off-by-one error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


4) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-52533)

CWE-ID: CWE-193 - Off-by-one Error

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


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

The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error in gio/gsocks4aproxy.c when handling responses from SOCKS4 proxy. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious SOCKS4 proxy server, trigger an off-by-one error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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