CVE-2014-9667

Publication date 8 February 2015

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

sfnt/ttload.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 proceeds with offset+length calculations without restricting the values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted SFNT table.
