Buffer overflow in libpng
Package(s): | libpng | CVE #(s): | CAN-2002-0728 CAN-2002-0660 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Created: | August 20, 2002 | Updated: | August 20, 2002 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description: | Versions of libpng prior to 1.0.14 contain a buffer overflow in the progressive reader when the PNG datastream contains more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk. Such deliberately malformed datastreams would crash applications that are linked to libpng and that use the progressive reading feature. (From the Red Hat alert). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
