oCERT #2009-009 CamlImages integer overflows CamlImages, an open source image processing library, suffers from several integer overflows which may lead to a potentially exploitable heap overflow and result in arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is triggered by PNG image parsing, the read_png_file and read_png_file_as_rgb24 functions do not properly validate the width and height of the image. Specific PNG images with large width and height can be crafted to trigger the vulnerability. Affected version: CamlImages <= 2.2 Fixed version: Unfortunately oCERT has been unable to get feedback from CamlImages maintainers and the package seems unmaintained, it's therefore suggested to avoid CamlImages usage on production or any environment where strong security is needed.

ml: app-text/active-dvi seems to be using this library, so in case of removal, both would have to go. Do you have contact to upstream?
There is a new version (3.0.1) at http://gallium.inria.fr/camlimages/ (it seems it has been released a long time ago: 2007-10-11 according to the tarball mtime) Is it also exploitable? Considering the timeline I'd suspect it is, but the advisory is about <=2.2.
The advisory has been updates to reflect that 3.0.1 is also affected. Alexis, I forwarded the reproducer to you. The email to upstream bounced for one of the two authors (Jun.Furuse).
CVE-2009-2295 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-2295): Multiple integer overflows in CamlImages 2.2 and earlier might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PNG image with large width and height values that trigger a heap-based buffer overflow in the (1) read_png_file or (2) read_png_file_as_rgb24 function.
3.0.1 in tree with upstream patches; it checks for oversized images in gif, jpeg and png so maybe there were other vulns. in jpeg & gif readers.
Created attachment 199108 [details, diff] camlimages-3.0.1-CVE-2009-2295.patch Fixes for CVE-2009-2295 and gif/jpeg overflows.

CVE-2009-2660 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-2660): Multiple integer overflows in CamlImages 2.2 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via images containing large width and height values that trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, related to (1) crafted GIF files (gifread.c) and (2) crafted JPEG files (jpegread.c), a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-2295.

The PNG patch appears to be incomplete (rowbytes itself is never checked, unless in libpng; I personally would always include my own, explicit check), and oversized() seems unnecessarily complex (why not check for x and y <= 0 and avoid the explicit "y != 0" in the third clause? images with zero-dimensions aren't valid, either). The GIF and JPEG checks appear to depend on third-party data structures and may break in the future if those ever switch to unsigned values (though I imagine that's unlikely).
(In reply to comment #13) > The PNG patch appears to be incomplete (rowbytes itself is never checked, > unless in libpng; I personally would always include my own, explicit check), I'm not sure I'm following. rowbytes is declared as size_t and libpng's png_get_rowbytes() returns a uint_32, which is an identical type. What else do you want to check? rowbytes is only used in memory allocations or access in multiplications with height, and that case is checked. > and oversized() seems unnecessarily complex (why not check for x and y <= 0 and > avoid the explicit "y != 0" in the third clause? images with zero-dimensions > aren't valid, either). 0 height or width are certainly not errors to cause an overflow message, so the additional case of oversized() returning false for x=0 or y=0 seems sane to me. > The GIF and JPEG checks appear to depend on third-party > data structures and may break in the future if those ever switch to unsigned > values (though I imagine that's unlikely). The members of the GifFileType struct and the jpeg_decompress_struct that are accessed are explicitly not marked private. How else should camlimages get access to these values?

What > else do you want to check? rowbytes is only used in memory allocations > or access in multiplications with height, and that case is checked. rowbytes itself is a product, and you never check that. Consider an RGB image with w = 1431655766: rowbytes = 2. Does libpng catch the overflow? Maybe so, maybe not, or maybe now but not in the future due to an oversight; the point is that you're depending on it to do so, and I'm saying that's not a very good approach to security. (As you noted, you're using rowbytes in memory allocations, but none of your rowbytes*h checks will catch the problem. Oopsie.) >> and oversized() seems unnecessarily complex (why not check for x and y <= 0 and >> avoid the explicit "y != 0" in the third clause? images with zero-dimensions >> aren't valid, either). > 0 height or width are certainly not errors to cause an overflow message, > so the additional case of oversized() returning false for x=0 or y=0 > seems sane to me. The point is simply that zero-dimensioned images serve no valid purpose, and you can save a few clock cycles by disallowing them: #define oversized(x, y) ((x) <= 0 || (y) <= 0 || (x) > INT_MAX / (y)) Cheap optimization, though undoubtedly not measurable... >> The GIF and JPEG checks appear to depend on third-party >> data structures and may break in the future if those ever switch to unsigned >> values (though I imagine that's unlikely). > The members of the GifFileType struct and the jpeg_decompress_struct > that are accessed are explicitly not marked private. How else should > camlimages get access to these values? Simply by copying to your own integer variables. I'm not claiming you necessarily gain anything by doing so--nothing in the patch screams at me "I will break if x is unsigned"--but I have seen other, similar (security) code depend on the signedness of integers that turned out not to be signed. You may want to do a quick mini-audit and make sure there are no signed/ unsigned dependencies in nearby code.
Hi (My first post to gentoo's bugzilla :) ) Just a general remark on this bug, has anyone checked tiffread.c? I can't find any validation checking in there and was wondering, whether it is required. Also, I am still getting a segmentation fault for the crafted jpeg image that was sent as a PoC via vendor-sec (I can hand that out via private email). Just wondering, whether someone checked it. I am attaching some code to test it, provided by our camlimages maintainer, maybe it's useful. Cheers Steffen
