CVE Descriptions

Stack-based buffer overflow in NConvert 4.92, GFL SDK 2.82, and XnView 1.93.6 on Windows and 1.70 on Linux and FreeBSD allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted format keyword in a Sun TAAC file.

CVE Informations

Related Weaknesses

CWE-ID Weakness Name Source
CWE-119 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> /* XnView 1.93.6 for Windows .taac buffer overflow proof of concept. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing the "format" keyword of Sun TAAC files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into viewing a specially crafted Sun TAAC file. Vulnerability discoverd by Secunia research http://secunia.com/secunia_research/2008-24/advisory/ Exploit code by Shinnok raydenxy@yahoo.com http://www.rstcenter.com This poc will create a "special" .taac file that when opened or viewed in XnView 1.93.6 for Windows will cause a buffer overflow and add an user "test" with password "test".
