NVD Description

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

An integer overflow vulnerability in the ptp_unpack_EOS_CustomFuncEx function of the ptp-pack.c file of libmtp (version 1.1.12 and below) allows attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access) or maybe remote code execution by inserting a mobile device into a personal computer through a USB cable.
