Ubuntu Security Notice USN-3226-1
March 13, 2017
icoutils vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Summary:
icoutils could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened
a specially crafted file.
Software Description:
- - icoutils: Create and extract MS Windows icons and cursors
Details:
Jerzy Kramarz discovered that icoutils incorrectly handled memory when
processing certain files. If a user or automated system were tricked into
opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause icoutils to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
icoutils 0.29.1-2ubuntu0.2
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
