Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** YAML::Syck versions before 1.38 for Perl has an out-of-bounds read.<br />
<br />
The base60 (sexagesimal) parsing code in perl_syck.h has a buffer underflow bug in both int#base60 and float#base60 handlers. When processing the leftmost segment of a colon-separated value (e.g., the 1 in 1:30:45), the inner while loop can decrement a pointer past the start of the string buffer:<br />
<br />
while ( colon >= ptr && *colon != &#39;:&#39; )<br />
{<br />
colon--;<br />
}<br />
if ( *colon == &#39;:&#39; ) *colon = &#39;\0&#39;; // colon may be ptr-1 here<br />
<br />
When no colon is found (final/leftmost segment), colon becomes ptr-1, and the subsequent *colon dereference reads one byte before the allocated buffer.
