libxpm vulnerabilities

Denial of service via unsigned underflow in libXpm's write path

A denial of service via unsigned underflow in libXpm's write path in libXpm before 3.5.19 could be used by local attackers to cause unbounded CPU usage and memory exhaustion.

Libxpm: libxpm: denial of service via out-of-bounds read in xpm file parsing

A flaw was found in libXpm. A local user with low privileges could exploit an Out-of-Bounds Read vulnerability in the `xpmNextWord()` function by processing a specially crafted or very small XPM (X PixMap) image file. This improper validation of file boundaries can cause an internal pointer to read beyond the file's end, leading to application crashes and Denial of Service conditions.

Libxpm: out of bounds read on xpm with corrupted colormap

A vulnerability was found in libXpm where a vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition, a local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.

Libxpm: out of bounds read in xpmcreatexpmimagefrombuffer()

A vulnerability was found in libXpm due to a boundary condition within the XpmCreateXpmImageFromBuffer() function. This flaw allows a local attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read the contents of memory on the system.

CVE-2022-4883

A flaw was found in libXpm. When processing files with .Z or .gz extensions, the library calls external programs to compress and uncompress files, relying on the PATH environment variable to find these programs, which could allow a malicious user to execute other programs by manipulating the PATH environment variable.

• Update to 1:3.5.12-1.1

CVE-2022-46285

A flaw was found in libXpm. This issue occurs when parsing a file with a comment not closed; the end-of-file condition will not be detected, leading to an infinite loop and resulting in a Denial of Service in the application linked to the library.

• Update to 1:3.5.12-1.1

CVE-2022-44617

A flaw was found in libXpm. When processing a file with width of 0 and a very large height, some parser functions will be called repeatedly and can lead to an infinite loop, resulting in a Denial of Service in the application linked to the library.

• Update to 1:3.5.12-1.1

CVE-2016-10164

Multiple integer overflows in libXpm before 3.5.12, when a program requests parsing XPM extensions on a 64-bit platform, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or execute arbitrary code via (1) the number of extensions or (2) their concatenated length in a crafted XPM file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
