Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mesh Viewer, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) A boundary error exists in the "Mesh::type()" function when processing mesh files. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by tricking a user into viewing a specially crafted mesh file.

2) Several boundary errors exist in "List_Mesh::read()", "PLY_Mesh::read()", "Vrml1_Mesh::read()", and in several functions in "vrml2_mesh.cc". This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted mesh file.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 0.2.2. Other versions may also be affected.
