Version : 5.04-5+squeeze9
CVE ID : CVE-2014-8116 CVE-2014-8117
Debian Bug : 773148
Multiple security issues have been found in file, a tool/library to
determine a file type. Processing a malformed file could result in
denial of service. Most of the changes are related to parsing ELF
files.
As part of the fixes, several limits on aspects of the detection were
added or tightened, sometimes resulting in messages like "recursion
limit exceeded" or "too many program header sections".
To mitigate such shortcomings, these limits are controllable by a new
"-R"/"–recursion" parameter in the file program. Note: A future
upgrade for file in squeeze-lts might replace this with the "-P"
parameter to keep usage consistent across all distributions.
CVE-2014-8116
The ELF parser (readelf.c) allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (CPU consumption or crash).
CVE-2014-8117
softmagic.c does not properly limit recursion, which allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption or crash).
