NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream icoutils package and not the icoutils package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The extract_group_icon_cursor_resource in wrestool/extract.c in icoutils before 0.31.1 can access unallocated memory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (process crash) and execute arbitrary code via a crafted executable.
