Synopsis ========
abcm2ps is vulnerable to a buffer overflow that could lead to remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
abcm2ps is a utility used to convert ABC music sheet files into PostScript format.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-sound/abcm2ps < 3.7.21 >= 3.7.21
Description ===========
Limin Wang has located a buffer overflow inside the put_words() function in the abcm2ps code.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could convince the victim to download a specially-crafted ABC file. Upon execution, this file would trigger the buffer overflow and lead to the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running abcm2ps.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All abcm2ps users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/abcm2ps-3.7.21"
