EPS Viewer Buffer Overflow Vulnerability


1. *Advisory Information*

Title: EPS Viewer Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Advisory ID: CORE-2013-0808
Advisory URL:
http://www.coresecurity.com/advisories/eps-viewer-buffer-overflow-vulnerability
Date published: 2013-08-28
Date of last update: 2013-08-28
Vendors contacted: EPS Viewer Team
Release mode: User release


2. *Vulnerability Information*

Class: Buffer overflow [CWE-119]
Impact: Code execution
Remotely Exploitable: Yes
Locally Exploitable: No
CVE Name: CVE-2013-4979


3. *Vulnerability Description*

EPS Viewer [1], [2] is prone to a security vulnerability when processing
EPS files. This vulnerability could be exploited by a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code on the target machine by enticing EPS Viewer
users to open a specially crafted EPS file (client-side vulnerability).


4. *Vulnerable Packages*

   . EPS viewer v3.2.
   . Older versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked.


5. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds*

There was no official answer from EPS team after several attempts to
report this vulnerability (see [Sec. 8]). As mitigation action, given
that this is a client-side vulnerability, avoid to open untrusted EPS
files. Contact vendor for further information.


6. *Credits*

This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Daniel Kazimirow
from Core Exploit Writers Team. The publication of this advisory was
coordinated by Fernando Miranda from Core Advisories Team.


7. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code*

Below is shown the result of opening the maliciously crafted EPS file
[3], which means the normal execution flow can be altered in order to
execute arbitrary code.
