TITLE

Multiple Hitachi Products GIF Image Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

Buffer overflow in Hitachi Cosminexus V4 through V7, Processing Kit for XML before 20070511, Developer's Kit for Java before 20070312, and third-party products that use this software, allows attackers to have an unknown impact via certain GIF images, related to use of GIF image processing APIs by a Java application. Multiple Hitachi products are prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the applications fail to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Given the nature of this issue, successful exploits may lead to remote code execution, but this has not been confirmed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Try a new way to discover vulnerabilities that ALREADY EXIST in your IT infrastructure.
