The sPLT chunk handling code (pngsetsPLT function in pngset.c) in libpng 1.0.6 through 1.2.12 uses a sizeof operator on the wrong data type, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via malformed sPLT chunks that trigger an out-of-bounds read.

Integer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Multiple integer overflows in the (1) pngreadpng in pngread.c or (2) pnghandlesPLT functions in pngrutil.c or (3) progressive display image reading capability in libpng 1.2.5 and earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed PNG image.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Multiple buffer overflows in libpng 1.2.5 and earlier, as used in multiple products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed PNG images in which (1) the pnghandletRNS function does not properly validate the length of transparency chunk (tRNS) data, or the (2) pnghandlesBIT or (3) pnghandlehIST functions do not perform sufficient bounds checking.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

The pnghandleiCCP function in libpng 1.2.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a certain PNG image that triggers a null dereference.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Buffer overflow in the pngdecompresschunk function in pngrutil.c in libpng before 1.2.12 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors related to "chunk error processing," possibly involving the "chunkname".
