Google Picasa < 3.9 Build 3.9.14.34 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Mac OS X)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 65926

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Mac OS X host contains a photo organization application that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The installed version of Google Picasa is earlier than 3.9 Build 3.9.14.34. As such, it is affected by the following vulnerabilities:

 - A buffer underflow vulnerability exists in the 'LZWDecodeCompat' function in the LibTIFF library. An attacker could exploit this issue through the use of a specially crafted TIFF image, potentially causing a denial of service. (CVE-2009-2285)

 - A sign-extension flaw exists that is triggered by the 'biBitCount' field that is not properly validated when processing the BMP color table. An attacker could exploit this issue though a specially crafted BMP image, potentially causing a heap-based buffer overflow resulting in a denial of service or arbitrary code execution.

Solution

Upgrade to Google Picasa 3.9 Build 3.9.14.34 or later.
