Secunia – ksquirrel-libs Radiance RGBE Buffer Overflows

Secunia Research has discovered some buffer overflows ksquirrel-libs, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise an application using the library. The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the “mt_codec::getHdrHead()” function in kernel/kls_hdr/fmt_codec_hdr.cpp, which can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows by e.g. tricking a user into opening a specially crafted Radiance RGBE (*.hdr) file. Version 0.8.0 is affected.
