CVE-2010-1440 1 Tug 2 Tetex, Tex Live 2023-02-12 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Multiple integer overflows in dvipsk/dospecial.c in dvips in TeX Live 2009 and earlier, and teTeX, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a special command in a DVI file, related to the (1) predospecial and (2) bbdospecial functions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0739.
CVE-2010-0739 1 Tug 2 Tetex, Tex Live 2023-02-12 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Integer overflow in the predospecial function in dospecial.c in dvips in (1) TeX Live and (2) teTeX might allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted DVI file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
CVE-2018-17407 3 Canonical, Debian, Tug 3 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Tex Live 2018-11-15 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
An issue was discovered in t1_check_unusual_charstring functions in writet1.c files in TeX Live before 2018-09-21. A buffer overflow in the handling of Type 1 fonts allows arbitrary code execution when a malicious font is loaded by one of the vulnerable tools: pdflatex, pdftex, dvips, or luatex.
CVE-2017-17513 1 Tug 1 Tex Live 2018-01-02 6.8 MEDIUM 8.8 HIGH
TeX Live through 20170524 does not validate strings before launching the program specified by the BROWSER environment variable, which might allow remote attackers to conduct argument-injection attacks via a crafted URL, related to linked_scripts/context/stubs/unix/mtxrun, texmf-dist/scripts/context/stubs/mswin/mtxrun.lua, and texmf-dist/tex/luatex/lualibs/lualibs-os.lua.
CVE-2016-10243 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Tug 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Tex Live 2017-09-18 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
TeX Live allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by leveraging inclusion of mpost in shell_escape_commands in the texmf.cnf config file.
CVE-2010-0827 1 Tug 2 Tetex, Tex Live 2017-09-18 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Integer overflow in dvips in TeX Live 2009 and earlier, and teTeX, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted virtual font (VF) file associated with a DVI file.
