    libxcursor: CVE-2017-16612
    
    affects: <= 1.1.14
    
    CVE-2017-16612: Fix heap overflows when parsing malicious files
    
    It is possible to trigger heap overflows due to an integer overflow
    while parsing images and a signedness issue while parsing comments.
    
    The integer overflow occurs because the chosen limit 0x10000 for
    dimensions is too large for 32 bit systems, because each pixel takes 4 bytes.
    Properly chosen values allow an overflow which in turn will lead to less
    allocated memory than needed for subsequent reads.
    
    The signedness bug is triggered by reading the length of a comment
    as unsigned int, but casting it to int when calling the function
    XcursorCommentCreate. Turning length into a negative value allows the
    check against XCURSOR_COMMENT_MAX_LEN to pass, and the following
    addition of sizeof (XcursorComment) + 1 makes it possible to allocate
    less memory than needed for subsequent reads.

+Subject: Fix heap overflows when parsing malicious files. (CVE-2017-16612)
+
+It is possible to trigger heap overflows due to an integer overflow
+while parsing images and a signedness issue while parsing comments.
+
+The integer overflow occurs because the chosen limit 0x10000 for
+dimensions is too large for 32 bit systems, because each pixel takes
+4 bytes. Properly chosen values allow an overflow which in turn will
+lead to less allocated memory than needed for subsequent reads.
+
+The signedness bug is triggered by reading the length of a comment
+as unsigned int, but casting it to int when calling the function
+XcursorCommentCreate. Turning length into a negative value allows the
+check against XCURSOR_COMMENT_MAX_LEN to pass, and the following
+addition of sizeof (XcursorComment) + 1 makes it possible to allocate
+less memory than needed for subsequent reads.
