Synopsis ========
A buffer overflow vulnerability has been discovered in the Common Data Format library.
Background ==========
The Common Data Format library is a scientific data management package which allows programmers and application developers to manage and manipulate scalar, vector, and multi-dimensional data arrays in a platform independent fashion.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 sci-libs/cdf < 3.2.1 >= 3.2.1
Description ===========
Alfredo Ortega (Core Security Technologies) reported a boundary error within the Read32s_64() function when processing CDF files.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted CDF file, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Common Data Format library users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=sci-libs/cdf-3.2.1"
References ==========
