Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in xzgv 0.8. Affected is an unknown function. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Heap-based buffer overflow in zgv before 5.8 and xzgv before 0.8 might allow user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a JPEG image with more than 3 output components, such as a CMYK or YCCK color space, which causes less memory to be allocated than required.

The bug was discovered 04/07/2006. The weakness was presented 04/11/2006 (Website). The advisory is shared for download at secunia.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2006-1060 since 03/07/2006. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available.

It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 4 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 22580 (Debian DSA-1038-1 : xzgv - programming error), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment.
