Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
xgalaga versions 2.0.34 and earlier
Description
The issue concerns multiple vulnerabilities in the xgalaga package of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system, which can be exploited by a local attacker to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. A key aspect of this issue is the presence of multiple buffer overflows, specifically in versions 2.0.34 and earlier, which can be triggered by a local user setting a long
HOME environment variable.Recommendations
For xgalaga versions 2.0.34 and earlier, consider restricting access to the
HOME environment variable to prevent exploitation of the buffer overflow vulnerability until a patch is available.
As a temporary workaround, avoid using long values for the HOME environment variable in affected versions of xgalaga.Exploit
