CVE-2010-0405

Publication date 20 September 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Integer overflow in the BZ2_decompress function in decompress.c in bzip2 and libbzip2 before 1.0.6 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted compressed file.

dump and dpkg use a statically linked bzip2 so simply need to be recompiled
