Integer overflow in the gifGetBandProc function in ImageIO in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF image that triggers the overflow during decompression. NOTE: this is a different issue than CVE-2006-3502 and CVE-2006-3503.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Crash occurs in gifGetBandProc() within ImageIO during GIF decompression; monitor for EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS signals originating from this function on Mac OS X 10.4.8. ↗
- →The exploit is triggered via Safari rendering a malformed GIF; the call stack passes through WebImageData imageAtIndex: → CGImagePlusCreateImage → CGImagePlusUpdateCache → gifGetBandProc. Detect anomalous Safari crashes involving this call chain. ↗
- →Delivery vector is a specially crafted .gif file served to Safari; inspect HTTP responses delivering GIF content to Mac OS X 10.4.8 clients for malformed GIF data that triggers integer overflow in gifGetBandProc during decompression. ↗
- ·Vulnerability is confirmed only on Mac OS X 10.4.8; previous versions may also be affected but are unconfirmed. ↗
- ·Arbitrary code execution via this overflow has not been confirmed; denial-of-service (segfault/crash) is the demonstrated impact. ↗
- ·This is a distinct issue from CVE-2006-3502 and CVE-2006-3503 despite involving the same ImageIO GIF handling subsystem. ↗

glibc: fnmatch() alloca()-based memory corruption flaw
The GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.12.2 and Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC) allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a long UTF8 string that is used in an fnmatch call, aka a "stack extension attack," a related issue to CVE-2010-2898, CVE-2010-1917, and CVE-2007-4782, as originally reported for use of this library by Google Chrome.
