| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
FreeType versions prior to 2.5.4
Description
The issue is related to the
bdf parse glyphs function in bdf/bdflib.c, which does not properly handle a missing ENDCHAR record. This can be exploited by remote attackers using a crafted BDF font, potentially leading to a denial of service due to a NULL pointer dereference or possibly having other unspecified impacts.Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.5.4, update to version 2.5.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of crafted BDF fonts to minimize the risk of exploitation.
