Chris Evans (Google Security) discovered a stack-based buffer overflow
|
|
within the zseticcspace() function in the file zicc.c when processing a
|
|
PostScript file containing a long "Range" array in a .seticcscpate
|
|
operator.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user
|
|
to open a specially crafted PostScript file, which could possibly lead
|
|
to the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.

</impact>

|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
