CVE-2018-10767

A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 2.23%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib in the function gxps_images_guess_content_type of gxps-images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does not reject negative return values from a g_input_stream_read call. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
