zlib inflate() routine vulnerable to buffer overflow
Overview A buffer overflow in the zlib compression library may cause any application linked to zlib to improperly and immediately terminate. Description There is a buffer overflow in the zlib data-compression library caused by a lack of bounds checking in the inflate routine. If an attacker...
USN-148-1: zlib vulnerability
Tavis Ormandy discovered that zlib did not properly verify data streams. Decompressing certain invalid compressed files caused corruption of internal data structures, which caused applications which link to zlib to crash. Specially crafted input might even have allowed arbitrary code execution...
