What is CVE-2009-1382?

The mimeTeX product by Abyss Solutions is affected by vulnerabilities due to multiple stack-based buffer overflows found in the mimetex.cgi script. Attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities by sending specially crafted TeX files containing excessively long tags such as picture, circle, or input. This can lead to arbitrary code execution on the server hosting mimeTeX, posing a significant risk if unpatched versions are used. It is crucial to ensure that all installations are updated to protect against these potential exploits.
