Synopsis:          Moderate: boost security update
Issue Date:        2013-03-21
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2012-2677
--

A flaw was found in the way the ordered_malloc() routine in Boost
sanitized the 'next_size' and 'max_size' parameters when allocating
memory. If an application used the Boost C++ libraries for memory
allocation, and performed memory allocation based on user-supplied input,
an attacker could use this flaw to crash the application or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
application. (CVE-2012-2677)
