Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-02-27 18:20:05 UTC
Multiple integer overflows were found in the Ghostsript's International Color Consortium Format Library (icclib). An attacker could use this flaw to
potentially execute arbitrary code by requesting to translate a specially-
crafted image file created on one device into another's device native color
space via a device file.

Comment 18 Jan Lieskovsky 2009-03-24 16:55:30 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2008-0583 to
this vulnerability:

Multiple integer overflows in icc.c in the International Color
Consortium (ICC) Format library (aka icclib), as used in Ghostscript
8.64 and earlier and Argyll Color Management System (CMS) 1.0.3 and
earlier, allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of
service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly
execute arbitrary code by using a device file for a translation
request that operates on a crafted image file and targets a certain
"native color space," related to an ICC profile in a (1) PostScript or
(2) PDF file with embedded images.
