Description:Summary:

Vulnerability Insight:

An integer overflow leading to a heap-based buffer overflow was found in
the png_set_sPLT() and png_set_text_2() API functions of libpng. An
attacker could create a specially-crafted image file and render it with
an application written to explicitly call png_set_sPLT() or
png_set_text_2() function, could cause libpng to crash or execute
arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running such an
application (CVE-2013-7353).

An integer overflow leading to a heap-based buffer overflow was found in
the png_set_unknown_chunks() API function of libpng. An attacker could
create a specially-crafted image file and render it with an application
written to explicitly call png_set_unknown_chunks() function, could cause
libpng to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
running such an application (CVE-2013-7354).
