TITLE:
Little cms Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34367

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34367/

DESCRIPTION:
Chris Evans has reported some vulnerabilities in Little cms, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service) or compromise an application using the library.

1) An input validation error in the "ReadSetOfCurves()" function when
processing image files can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via a specially crafted image file.

2) Multiple integer overflow errors in the processing of image files
can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflow via specially
crafted image files.

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow execution
of arbitrary code.

3) A memory leak in the processing of image files can be exploited to
consume system memory and cause a crash.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in lcms-1.18beta2.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Chris Evans
