libpng row data buffer overflow
| libpng-rowdata-bo (59815) |  High Risk |
Description:
libpng is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by progressive applications when handling image row data. By sending an extra image row data beyond the reported height in the header, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of the victim.
