FreeBSD : lcms2 -- Integer overflow (ca62e49c-4150-11f1-95f7-00a098b42aeb)

high Nessus Plugin ID 310390

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ca62e49c-4150-11f1-95f7-00a098b42aeb advisory.

https://github.com/mm2/Little-CMS/commit/da6110b1d14abc394633a388209abd5ebedd7ab0 reports:
Little CMS (lcms2) through 2.18 has an integer overflow in CubeSize in cmslut.c because the overflow check is performed after the multiplication.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
