| Vetor | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Xfig version 3.2.5b and earlier
Transfig version 3.2.5a and earlier
Description
The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in certain functions, specifically
read 1 3 textobject in Xfig and read textobject in Transfig, when processing a long string in a malformed .fig file that uses the 1.3 file format. This could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.Recommendations
For Xfig version 3.2.5b and earlier, consider updating to a newer version to resolve the issue.
For Transfig version 3.2.5a and earlier, consider updating to a newer version to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the
read 1 3 textobject function in Xfig and the read textobject function in Transfig until a patch is available.
Avoid using the 1.3 file format in .fig files until the issue is resolved.Exploit
