Description Vincent Danen 2013-02-11 21:59:48 UTC
Stack-based buffer overflow in libpixman, as used in Pale Moon before 15.4, has unspecified impact and attack vectors.

The upstream commit to correct this flaw:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pixman/commit/?id=de60e2e0e3eb6084f8f14b63f25b3cbfb012943f

The affected code (pixman/pixman-inlines.h, fast_composite_scaled_bilinear()) is present in the version of pixmap shipped with Fedora 17 (0.24.4), but is not present in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 or 6 (the fast_composite_scaled_bilinear() function is in pixman/pixman-fast-path.h, but the vulnerable code is not there and I don't detect anything comparable).  So it's likely that the vulnerable code was introduced after 0.22.0.
