CVE-2014-3487: Debian Linux

Medium severity, CVSS 4.3. EPSS: 14.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The cdf_read_property_info function in file before 5.19, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14, does not properly validate a stream offset, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted CDF file.

Affected products

• Debian Debian Linux: version 7.0 only; version 8.0 only
• File Project File: before 5.19 (fixed in 5.19)
• Opensuse Opensuse: version 11.4 only
• Oracle Linux: version 7 only
• PHP PHP: before 5.3.29 (fixed in 5.3.29); from 5.4.0, before 5.4.30 (fixed in 5.4.30); from 5.5.0, before 5.5.14 (fixed in 5.5.14)
