Medium

Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GPGME versions prior to 1.5.1

Description The issue is related to multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the status handler function, specifically in the engine-gpgsm.c and engine-uiserver.c files. This can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to the execution of arbitrary code. The exploitation vectors are related to different line lengths in a specific order.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.5.1, update to version 1.5.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the status handler function in the affected files until a patch is applied.
