blender: integer overflow

Package(s):blender CVE #(s):CVE-2005-4470
Created:January 6, 2006 Updated:June 15, 2006
Description: Damian Put discovered that Blender did not properly validate a 'length' value in .blend files. Negative values led to an insufficiently sized memory allocation. By tricking a user into opening a specially crafted .blend file, this could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Blender user.
