Descripción

*** Pendiente de traducción *** GNU coreutils unexpand is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow due to an integer overflow during buffer allocation when processing large tab stop (-t) values. The multiplication used to calculate the allocation size can wrap around, resulting in an undersized buffer.<br /> When processing crafted input, subsequent writes exceed the allocated memory, leading to an out‑of‑bounds heap write.<br /> <br /> When running GNU coreutils unexpand with attacker-provided large tab stop (-t) arguments, this behavior leads to a crash and potentially achieve a heap write primitive depending on memory layout.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This issue has been fixed in the commit b60a159fdc5bfcf9988d3a4cb6f53abe8ad5d35d
