CVE-2004-0994
Overview
CVE-2004-0994 is a known-severity vulnerability affecting zgv xzgv_image_viewer. It was published on January 10, 2005.
Technical Description
Multiple integer overflows in xzgv 0.8 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via images with large width and height values, which trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, as demonstrated in the read_prf_file function in readprf.c. NOTE: CVE-2004-0994 and CVE-2004-1095 identify sets of bugs that only partially overlap, despite having the same developer. Therefore, they should be regarded as distinct.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from zgv. Update xzgv_image_viewer to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
