Vulnerability CVE-2017-6009


Published: 2017-02-16

Description:
An issue was discovered in icoutils 0.31.1. A buffer overflow was observed in the "decode_ne_resource_id" function in the "restable.c" source file. This is happening because the "len" parameter for memcpy is not checked for size and thus becomes a negative integer in the process, resulting in a failed memcpy. This affects wrestool.

Type:

CWE-119

(Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer)
