Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GNOME libgsf versions up to 1.14.53

Description A critical issue affects the function gsf property settings collec. The manipulation of the argument n alloced params leads to a heap-based buffer overflow. This issue requires local attack capabilities. The vendor was contacted about this disclosure but did not respond.

Recommendations For GNOME libgsf versions up to 1.14.53, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the gsf property settings collec function until a patch is available. Avoid manipulating the n alloced params argument in the affected function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
