Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19105)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger an out-of-bounds write and crash the application.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21898)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the dwgCompressor::decompress18() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted .dwg file, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21899)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the dwgCompressor::copyCompBytes21 function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted .dwg file, trigger heap buffer overflow, and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21900)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the dxfRW::processLType() function. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted .dwg file, trigger use-after-free, and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45341)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the CDataMoji of the jwwlib component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted JWW document, trigger heap buffer overflow, and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45342)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the CDataList of the jwwlib component. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted JWW document, trigger heap buffer overflow, and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


7) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-45343)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the HATCH handling of libdxfrw. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted DXF document and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
