CVE-2007-4391

Heap-based buffer overflow in Kakadu kdu_v32m.dll in Yahoo!

HIGH 9.3EPSS 9.31%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (9.31%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Heap-based buffer overflow in Kakadu kdu_v32m.dll in Yahoo! Messenger 8.1.0.413 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a certain length field in JPEG2000 data, as demonstrated by sending an "invite to view my webcam" request, and then injecting a DLL into the attacker's peer Yahoo! Messenger application when this request is accepted.
