Problem Description

+

Multiple programming errors have been found in gzip which + can be triggered when gzip is decompressing files. These + errors include insufficient bounds checks in buffer use, a + NULL pointer dereference, and a potential infinite loop.

+

Impact

+

The insufficient bounds checks in buffer use can cause gzip + to crash, and may permit the execution of arbitrary code. + The NULL pointer deference can cause gzip to crash. The + infinite loop can cause a Denial-of-Service situation where + gzip uses all available CPU time.

+

Workaround

+

No workaround is available.
