Severity: Normal Title: XEmacs: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code Date: June 03, 2010 Bugs: #275397 ID: 201006-15

Synopsis ========
Multiple integer overflow errors in XEmacs might allow remote, user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code.
Background ==========
XEmacs is a highly extensible and customizable text editor.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-editors/xemacs < 21.4.22-r1 >= 21.4.22-r1
Description ===========
Tielei Wang reported multiple integer overflow vulnerabilities in the tiff_instantiate(), png_instantiate() and jpeg_instantiate() functions in glyphs-eimage.c, all possibly leading to heap-based buffer overflows.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF, JPEG or PNG file using XEmacs, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application, or a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All XEmacs users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-editors/xemacs-21.4.22-r1"
NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are available since July 26, 2009. It is likely that your system is already no longer affected by this issue.
