CVE-2018-10767: Gnome Libgxps

Medium severity, CVSS 6.5. EPSS: 2.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

There is a stack-based buffer over-read in calling GLib in the function gxps_images_guess_content_type of gxps-images.c in libgxps through 0.3.0 because it does not reject negative return values from a g_input_stream_read call. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.

Affected products

  • Gnome Libgxps: up to and including 0.3.0
  • Red Hat Ansible Tower: version 3.3 only
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop: version 7.0 only
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server: version 7.0 only
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation: version 7.0 only
