NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream abcm2ps package and not the abcm2ps package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

Multiple buffer overflows in abcm2ps before 5.9.12 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted input file, related to the PUT0 and PUT1 output macros; (2) a crafted input file, related to the trim_title function; and possibly (3) a long -O option on a command line.
