Heap-based buffer overflow in Research in Motion (RIM) BlackBerry Attachment Service allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via an e-mail attachment with a crafted TIFF file.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
