Detail
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 13.10 - Ubuntu 12.10 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: LibYAML could be made to crash or run programs if it opened a specially crafted YAML document. Software Description: - libyaml: Fast YAML 1.1 parser and emitter library Details: Ivan Fratric discovered that LibYAML incorrectly handled certain malformed YAML documents. An attacker could use this issue to cause LibYAML to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 13.10: Ubuntu 12.10: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: After a standard system update you need to restart applications using LibYAML to make all the necessary changes.

Description: | Ivan Fratric of the Google Security Team discovered a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in LibYAML, a fast YAML 1.1 parser and emitter library. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted YAML document that, when parsed by an application using libyaml, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. | ||

Description: | erl-YAML-LibYAML was updated to fix three security issues. These security issues were fixed: - CVE-2013-6393: The yaml_parser_scan_tag_uri function in scanner.c in LibYAML before 0.1.5 performed an incorrect cast, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted tags in a YAML document, which triggered a heap-based buffer overflow (bnc#860617, bnc#911782). | ||
