+ CHMlib is a library for the MS CHM (Compressed HTML) file format plus + extracting and HTTP server utils. +

+
+ +

+ When certain CHM files that contain tables and objects stored in pages + are parsed by CHMlib, an unsanitized value is passed to the alloca() + function resulting in a shift of the stack pointer to arbitrary memory + locations. +

+
+ +

+ An attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted CHM file, + resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of + the user viewing the file. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All CHMlib users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/chmlib-0.39" +
