particular file according to the type of data the file contains. It can identify
many different file types, including Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) binary
files, system libraries, RPM packages, and different graphics formats.
Multiple denial of service flaws were found in the way file parsed certain
Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could use either
of these flaws to crash file, or an application using file, via a specially
crafted CDF file. (CVE-2014-0207, CVE-2014-0237, CVE-2014-0238,
CVE-2014-3479, CVE-2014-3480, CVE-2014-3487, CVE-2014-3587)
Two flaws were found in the way file processed certain Pascal strings. A
remote attacker could cause file to crash if it was used to identify the
type of the attacker-supplied file. (CVE-2014-3478, CVE-2014-9652)
Multiple flaws were found in the file regular expression rules for
detecting various files. A remote attacker could use these flaws to cause
file to consume an excessive amount of CPU. (CVE-2014-3538)
Multiple flaws were found in the way file parsed Executable and Linkable
Format (ELF) files. A remote attacker could use these flaws to cause file
to crash, disclose portions of its memory, or consume an excessive amount
of system resources. (CVE-2014-3710, CVE-2014-8116, CVE-2014-8117,
CVE-2014-9653)
