USN-5558-1: libcdio vulnerabilities

Related Vulnerabilities: CVE-2017-18198   CVE-2017-18199  

Several security issues were fixed in libcdio.

Details

Zhao Liang discovered that libcdio was not properly performing memory
management operations when processing ISO files, which could result
in a heap buffer overflow or in a NULL pointer dereference. If a user
or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file,
an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
