CVE-2014-9732

Published: 11 June 2015

The cabd_extract function in cabd.c in libmspack before 0.5 does not properly maintain decompression callbacks in certain cases where an invalid file follows a valid file, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted CAB archive.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

It was discovered that cabextract incorrectly handled certain malformed CAB files. An attacker could use this issue to cause cabextract to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
