XnView 2.x < 2.13 Multiple Buffer Overflows

high Nessus Plugin ID 71864

Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains an application that is affected by multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of XnView 2.x installed on the remote Windows host is earlier than 2.13. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by the following buffer overflow vulnerabilities:

- A remote, heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists due to an error in the 'xnview.exe' file when processing BMP files. An attacker can exploit this issue through a specially crafted 'biBitCount' field.
(CVE-2013-3937)

- A remote, heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists because XnView fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Specifically, this issue occurs due to a sign-extension error in the 'xnview.exe' file when processing RLE strip lengths in RGB files. An attacker can exploit this issue through a specially crafted RLE strip size field. (CVE-2013-3939)

- A remote, heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists because XnView fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Specifically, this issue occurs in 'Xjp2.dll' when using the Csiz parameter of the SIZ marker and lqcd field of the QCD marker. An attacker can exploit this issue through a specially crafted JPEG2000 file. (CVE-2013-3941)

Solution

Upgrade to XnView version 2.13 or later.
