FreeType before 2.6.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read in T1_Get_Private_Dict in type1/t1parse.c.

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has freetype packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - FreeType before 2.6.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read     in T1_Get_Private_Dict in type1/t1parse.c.
    (CVE-2015-9381)

  - FreeType before 2.6.1 has a buffer over-read in     skip_comment in psaux/psobjs.c because     ps_parser_skip_PS_token is mishandled in an     FT_New_Memory_Face operation. (CVE-2015-9382)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the freetype package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The t42_parse_encoding function in type42/t42parse.c in     FreeType before 2.5.4 does not properly update the     current position for immediates-only mode, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite     loop) via a Type42 font.(CVE-2014-9747)

  - FreeType before 2.6.2 has a heap-based buffer over-read     in tt_cmap14_validate in sfnt/ttcmap.c.(CVE-2015-9383)

  - FreeType before 2.6.1 has a buffer over-read in     skip_comment in psaux/psobjs.c because     ps_parser_skip_PS_token is mishandled in an     FT_New_Memory_Face operation.(CVE-2015-9382)

  - FreeType before 2.6.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read     in T1_Get_Private_Dict in     type1/t1parse.c.(CVE-2015-9381)

  - In FreeType before 2.6.1, a buffer over-read occurs in     type1/t1parse.c on function T1_Get_Private_Dict where     there is no check that the new values of cur and limit     are sensible before going to Again.(CVE-2015-9290)

  - The parse_encoding function in type1/t1load.c in     FreeType before 2.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause     a denial of service (infinite loop) via a 'broken     number-with-base' in a Postscript stream, as     demonstrated by 8#garbage.(CVE-2014-9745)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of freetype installed on the remote host is prior to 2.3.11-19.15. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2020-1348 advisory.

    FreeType before 2.6.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read in T1_Get_Private_Dict in type1/t1parse.c.
    (CVE-2015-9381)

    FreeType before 2.6.1 has a buffer over-read in skip_comment in psaux/psobjs.c because     ps_parser_skip_PS_token is mishandled in an FT_New_Memory_Face operation. (CVE-2015-9382)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the freetype package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The FreeType engine is a free and portable font     rendering engine, developed to provide advanced font     support for a variety of platforms and environments.
    FreeType is a library which can open and manages font     files as well as efficiently load, hint and render     individual glyphs. FreeType is not a font server or a     complete text-rendering library. Security Fix(es):The     t42_parse_encoding function in type42/t42parse.c in     FreeType before 2.5.4 does not properly update the     current position for immediates-only mode, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite     loop) via a Type42 font.(CVE-2014-9747)In Sudo before     1.8.28, an attacker with access to a Runas ALL sudoer     account can bypass certain policy blacklists and     session PAM modules, and can cause incorrect logging,     by invoking sudo with a crafted user ID. For example,     this allows bypass of !root configuration, and USER=     logging, for a 'sudo -u \#$((0xffffffff))'     command.(CVE-2015-9383)FreeType before 2.6.1 has a     buffer over-read in skip_comment in psaux/psobjs.c     because ps_parser_skip_PS_token is mishandled in an     FT_New_Memory_Face operation.(CVE-2015-9382)FreeType     before 2.6.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read in     T1_Get_Private_Dict in     type1/t1parse.c.(CVE-2015-9381)In FreeType before     2.6.1, a buffer over-read occurs in type1/t1parse.c on     function T1_Get_Private_Dict where there is no check     that the new values of cur and limit are sensible     before going to Again.(CVE-2015-9290)The parse_encoding     function in type1/t1load.c in FreeType before 2.5.3     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (infinite loop) via a 'broken number-with-base' in a     Postscript stream, as demonstrated by     8#garbage.(CVE-2014-9745)The parse_charstrings function     in type1/t1load.c in FreeType 2 before 2.7 does not     ensure that a font contains a glyph name, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (heap-based buffer over-read) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted     file.(CVE-2016-10244)
