Hack a Day
An old book – the smell, the texture of the slowly rotting paper, and the smudges and margin notes accrued over decades – is one of the finer points in life taken for granted much too often. We’re bombarded with high precision vector typefaces all day, but [Dan]‘s Avería font is beautiful in its irregularity. [Dan] [...]

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0467-01 - FreeType is a free, high-quality, portable font engine that can open and manage font files. It also loads, hints, and renders individual glyphs efficiently. Multiple flaws were found in the way FreeType handled TrueType Font, Glyph Bitmap Distribution Format, Windows .fnt and .fon, and PostScript Type 1 fonts. If a specially-crafted font file was loaded by an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

Packet Storm Security Advisories
A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Oracle Java. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the way Java handles True Type Font files. When reading a font file, Java will use the MaxInstructionSize from the maxp table to create a heap memory location to store all the Instruction Definition found in the Font Program 'fpgm' table. However, when Java encounters an IDEF opcode (0x89) in the opcode stream it never checks the size of the MaxInstructionSize which can result in a heap buffer overflow. This can lead to remote code execution under the context of the current process.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0062-01 - The t1lib library allows you to rasterize bitmaps from PostScript Type 1 fonts. Two heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way t1lib processed Adobe Font Metrics files. If a specially-crafted font file was opened by an application linked against t1lib, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. An invalid pointer dereference flaw was found in t1lib.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-004 - Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in t1lib. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way AFM font file parser, used for rendering of DVI files, in GNOME evince document viewer and other products, processed line tokens from the given input stream. A remote attacker could provide a DVI file, with embedded specially-crafted font file, and trick the local user to open it with an application using the AFM font parser, leading to that particular application crash or, potentially, arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the application. Various other issues were also addressed.

Zero Day Initiative Advisory 11-340 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple Quicktime. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within how the application parses font names embedded within an atom. When parsing the font name, the application will treat a length from the file as a signed value when copying font data into a buffer. Due to an unsigned promotion, this can be used to write outside the bounds of a buffer which can lead to code execution under the context of the application.

A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of the Adobe Shockwave Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the Font Xtra.x32 asset module responsible for parsing font structures within Director movie files (.dir). When parsing data within the PFR1 chunk, the process implicitly sign-extends a 16-bit size value and seeks pointers accordingly. It then operates upon the data it has reached which can be abused by an attacker to corrupt memory and subsequently execute arbitrary code under the context of the user running the browser.
