Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Squashfs versions 4.2 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to an integer overflow in the queue init function in unsquashfs.c, which can be exploited by remote attackers via a crafted block log field in the superblock of a .sqsh file. This leads to a heap-based buffer overflow, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
Recommendations
For Squashfs versions 4.2 and earlier, update to a version later than 4.2 to resolve the issue.
