TITLE:
Amaya "defer" Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34531

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34531/

DESCRIPTION:
Alfons Luja has discovered a vulnerability in Amaya, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing
of e.g. "script" tags containing an overly long "defer" attribute and
can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a user
visits a malicious web page.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 11.1 on the Windows
platform.

SOLUTION:
Do not follow untrusted links or browse untrusted web sites.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
