Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

It was reported [1] that the gdImageCreateFromXpm() function in libgd could dereference a NULL pointer, noting:

"The call to strlen() parses image.colorTable[i].ccolor which is initialised as NULL if the particular color mapping uses a different key (such as monochrome/monovisual)."

This was reported against PHP, which includes an embedded copy of the gd library. CVE-2014-2497 was assigned to this issue [2].

Martin Holst Swende discovered a flaw in the way modheaders handled chunked requests. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass intended modheaders restrictions, allowing them to send requests to applications that include headers that should have been removed by modheaders.

Discussion and a possible patch is available from the following thread:

An memory exhaustion flaw was found in the way VTE, a terminal emulator widget, processed certain character sequences. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted file, which once opened in a terminal using the VTE terminal emulator could lead to excessive memory and CPU consumption.
