Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.

1) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU11766

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5800

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the kodak_ycbcr_load_raw function in internal/dcraw_common.cpp due to an off-by-one error. A local attacker can submit specially crafted images, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and cause the service to crash.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

2) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU11767

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 8.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5801

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists in the unpack function src/libraw_cxx.cpp due to incorrect handling of photo files. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted photo file, trigger NULL pointer dereference and cause the service to crash or execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

3) Out-of-bounds write

EUVDB-ID: #VU11768

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 8.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5802

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists in the "kodak_radc_load_raw()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) related to the "buf" variable due to incorrect handling of photo files. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted photo file, trigger out-of-bounds write and cause the service to crash or execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation
