VUL-1: CVE-2016-9601: ghostscript,ghostscript-library,jbig2dec: Heap-buffer overflow due to Integer overflow in jbig2_image_new function
Last modified: 2020-06-11 20:31:00 UTC
https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697457 The vulnerability is caused by an Addition-1 integer overflow. The overflowed value will be passed to function ‘malloc’ as the SIZE parameter and a buffer with 0 size is allocated. Later, out-of-bound read/write can happen when accessing the buffer. Whether it’s an out-of-bound read vulnerability or out-of-bound write can be controlled by crafting the input .jb2 file. The vulnerability can cause Denial-of-Service (maybe corrupt some key memory data). ghostscript has the lib bundled, openSUSE has a stand-alone jbig2dec package in addition.
