CVE-2004-1095

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Multiple integer overflows in zgv 5.8 image reading functions (BMP, GIF, PNG, TIFF, etc.) allow remote code execution via crafted image headers that cause buffer overflows.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can remotely execute arbitrary code on the victim's system by tricking them into opening a malicious image file in the vulnerable zgv version, potentially leading to full system compromise.

Recommendation

Upgrade zgv to a version later than 5.8 immediately. If not possible, avoid opening image files from untrusted sources.

Original NVD description (English source)

Multiple integer overflows in (1) readbmp.c, (2) readgif.c, (3) readgif.c, (4) readmrf.c, (5) readpcx.c, (6) readpng.c,(7) readpnm.c, (8) readprf.c, (9) readtiff.c, (10) readxbm.c, (11) readxpm.c in zgv 5.8 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain image headers that cause calculations to be overflowed and small buffers to be allocated, leading to buffer overflows. NOTE: CVE-2004-0994 and CVE-2004-1095 identify sets of bugs that only partially overlap, despite having the same developer. Therefore, they should be regarded as distinct.
