Detail

pngrtran.c in libpng 1.5.x before 1.5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted palette-based PNG image that triggers a buffer overflow, related to the png_do_expand_palette function, the png_do_rgb_to_gray function, and an integer underflow. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Id Description
70417 libpng pngrtran.c png_do_rgb_to_gray() Function PNG File Handling Overflow

libpng is prone to an overflow condition. The 'png_do_expand_palette()' and 'png_do_rgb_to_gray()' functions in 'pngrtran.c' fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted PNG file, a context-dependent attacker can cause a denial of service. It is possible, though not yet confirmed, that this vulnerability may also be exploited to allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
