Buffer overflow in the ImagingLibTiffDecode function in libImaging/TiffDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to overwrite memory via a crafted TIFF file.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - python-pillow, python-imaging: command injection issue (CVE-2014-3007)

  - python-pillow: Missing check for negative image dimensions in ImagingNew (Storage.c) (CVE-2016-9190)

  - The (1) load_djpeg function in JpegImagePlugin.py, (2) Ghostscript function in EpsImagePlugin.py, (3) load     function in IptcImagePlugin.py, and (4) _copy function in Image.py in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and     earlier and Pillow before 2.3.1 do not properly create temporary files, which allow local users to     overwrite arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a symlink attack on the temporary file.
    (CVE-2014-1932)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

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

  - Pillow before 3.3.2 allows context-dependent attackers     to obtain sensitive information by using the 'crafted     image file' approach, related to an 'Integer Overflow'     issue affecting the Image.core.map_buffer in map.c     component.(CVE-2016-9189)

  - Buffer overflow in the ImagingPcdDecode function in     PcdDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 and Python Imaging     Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted     PhotoCD file.(CVE-2016-2533)

  - Buffer overflow in the ImagingFliDecode function in     libImaging/FliDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)     via a crafted FLI file.(CVE-2016-0775)

  - Buffer overflow in the ImagingLibTiffDecode function in     libImaging/TiffDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 allows     remote attackers to overwrite memory via a crafted TIFF     file.(CVE-2016-0740)

  - Integer overflow in the ImagingResampleHorizontal     function in libImaging/Resample.c in Pillow before     3.1.1 allows remote attackers to have unspecified     impact via negative values of the new size, which     triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2016-4009)

  - PIL/IcnsImagePlugin.py in Python Imaging Library (PIL)     and Pillow before 2.3.2 and 2.5.x before 2.5.2 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a     crafted block size.(CVE-2014-3589)

  - Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow     2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary     commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified     vectors related to CVE-2014-1932, possibly     JpegImagePlugin.py.(CVE-2014-3007)

  - The (1) JpegImagePlugin.py and (2) EpsImagePlugin.py     scripts in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier     and Pillow before 2.3.1 uses the names of temporary     files on the command line, which makes it easier for     local users to conduct symlink attacks by listing the     processes.(CVE-2014-1933)

  - The (1) load_djpeg function in JpegImagePlugin.py, (2)     Ghostscript function in EpsImagePlugin.py, (3) load     function in IptcImagePlugin.py, and (4) _copy function     in Image.py in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and     earlier and Pillow before 2.3.1 do not properly create     temporary files, which allow local users to overwrite     arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a     symlink attack on the temporary file.(CVE-2014-1932)

  - An issue was discovered in Pillow before 6.2.0. When     reading specially crafted invalid image files, the     library can either allocate very large amounts of     memory or take an extremely long period of time to     process the image.(CVE-2019-16865)

  - libImaging/FliDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has an     FLI buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-5313)

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

  - A memory disclosure vulnerability was found in     python-pillow. Functions in map.c failed to check for     image overflow and check that an offset parameter was     within bounds, allowing a crafted image to cause a     crash or disclosure of memory.(CVE-2016-9189)

  - Buffer overflow in the ImagingPcdDecode function in     PcdDecode.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 and Python Imaging     Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted     PhotoCD file.(CVE-2016-2533)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201612-52 (Pillow: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pillow. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A local attacker could perform symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary       files with the privileges of the user running the application, or obtain       sensitive information.
    A remote attackers could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of       the process, or cause a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3090-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that a flaw in processing a compressed text chunk in a PNG image could cause the image     to have a large size when decompressed, potentially leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2014-9601)

    Andrew Drake discovered that Pillow incorrectly validated input. A remote attacker could use this to cause     Pillow to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-3589)

    Eric Soroos discovered that Pillow incorrectly handled certain malformed FLI, Tiff, and PhotoCD files. A     remote attacker could use this issue to cause Pillow to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
    (CVE-2016-0740, CVE-2016-0775, CVE-2016-2533)

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

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

This update for python-Pillow fixes the following issues :

  - backport security fixes from 3.1.1     (Pillow-overflows.patch) :

  - Fixed an integer overflow in Resample.c causing writes     in the Python heap. 

  - Fixed a buffer overflow in PcdDecode.c causing a     segfault when opening PhotoCD files. CVE-2016-TBD

  - Fixed a buffer overflow in FliDecode.c causing a     segfault when opening FLI files. CVE-2016-0775 (fixes     boo#965582)

  - Fixed a buffer overflow in TiffDecode.c causing an     arbitrary amount of memory to be overwritten when     opening a specially crafted invalid TIFF file.
    CVE-2016-0740 (fixes boo#965579)

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been found in Pillow, a Python imaging library, which may result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed FLI, PCD or Tiff files is processed.

The Pillow maintainers report :

Pillow 3.1.0 and earlier when linked against libtiff >= 4.0.0 on x64 may overflow a buffer when reading a specially crafted tiff file.

Specifically, libtiff >= 4.0.0 changed the return type of TIFFScanlineSize from int32 to machine dependent int32|64. If the scanline is sized so that it overflows an int32, it may be interpreted as a negative number, which will then pass the size check in TiffDecode.c line 236. To do this, the logical scanline size has to be > 2gb, and for the test file, the allocated buffer size is 64k against a roughly 4gb scan line size. Any image data over 64k is written over the heap, causing a segfault.

This issue was found by security researcher FourOne.
