LittleCMS vulnerabilities (OpenJDK, Firefox, GIMP, etc. impacted)

Hi,

LittleCMS (or lcms) prior to v1.18beta2 contains various integer
overflow, buffer overflow and memory leak errors. At least one of
these bugs is a stack-based buffer overflow which is good for
arbitrary code execution. I have an exploit that works on my
Ubuntu-8.10 laptop but am holding off on releasing it just yet.

The most serious bug is a stack-based buffer overflow in
ReadSetOfCurves() in cmsio1.c. With some code paths, validation of the

II. Description
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This bug is a simple design bug that results in an endless loop (and interesting
memory leaks).

Once upon a time Netscape thought it would be a great idea to add the keygen tag
(<keygen>) as a feature to their Browser. The keygen tag offers a simple way
of automatically generating key material using various algorithms. For instance
it is possible to generate RSA, DSA and EC key material.

The  bug title says Denial of service, not information leak, or crypto
leak or whatever.

That's it, one might want to write a paper how,  by  indirect
means  memory  leaks  can  wreak  havoc, that's an exercise
I happily leave  to  the  reader. The point was that you
better  analyse  them  instead  of having them sit there a few months.
