Integer overflow in the wrestool program in icoutils before 0.31.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted executable, which triggers a denial of service (application crash) or the possibility of execution of arbitrary code.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4695-1 advisory.

    Choongwoo Han discovered that icoutils incorrectly handled certain files. An attacker could possibly use     this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5208)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201801-12 (icoutils: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    A remote attacker could entice a user to process a specially crafted       file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Choongwoo Han reports :

An exploitable crash exists in the wrestool utility on 64-bit systems where the result of subtracting two pointers exceeds the size of int.

This update for icoutils to version 0.31.1 fixes the following issues :

  - CVE-2017-5208: An integer overflow allows maliciously     crafted files to cause DoS or code execution     (boo#1018756).

  - CVE-2017-5331: Incorrect out of bounds checks in     check_offset allow for DoS or code execution     (boo#1018756).

  - CVE-2017-5332: Missing out of bounds checks in     extract_group_icon_cursor_resource allow for DoS or code     execution (boo#1018756).

  - CVE-2017-5333: Incorrect out of bounds checks in     check_offset allow for DoS or code execution     (boo#1018756).

This new point release fixes a security vulnerability in wrestool. For further details see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=850017

Brief introduction 

CVE-2017-5208

Choongwoo Han reported[0] an exploitable crash in wrestool from icoutils. The command line tools is e.g. used in KDE's metadataparsing.

CVE-2017-5331

It turned out that the correction for CVE-2017-5208 was not enough so an additional correction was needed.

CVE-2017-5332

But as I see it there are still combinations of the arguments which make the test succeed even though the the memory block identified by offset size is not fully inside memory total_size.

CVE-2017-5333

The memory check was not stringent enough on 64 bit systems.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 0.29.1-5deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your icoutils packages.

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

Choongwoo Han discovered that a programming error in the wrestool tool of the icoutils suite allows denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed binary is parsed.
