Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Heap-based buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU89065
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22391
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the LookupTable::SetLUT functionality. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted file, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's repository.

2) Out-of-bounds write
EUVDB-ID: #VU89066
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22373
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in the JPEG2000Codec::DecodeByStreamsCommon functionality. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted DICOM file, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

3) Out-of-bounds read
EUVDB-ID: #VU89064
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25569
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the RAWCodec::DecodeBytes functionality. A remote attacker can use a specially crafted file, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's repository.
