CVE-2017-6009 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Ubuntu:16.04 icoutils to version 0.31.0-3ubuntu0.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream icoutils package and not the icoutils package as distributed by Ubuntu.
See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.
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.
