Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3570)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in tiffcrop.c utility in libtiff when processing TIFF files. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted file to the application, 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.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3598)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing TIFF images within the extractContigSamplesShifted24bits() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF image to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48281)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the processCropSelections() function in tools/tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF image to the application, 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.


4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30775)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the extractContigSamples32bits() function in tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, 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.


5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40745)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted image to the application, trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41175)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in raw2tiff.c A remote attacker can create a specially crafted TIFF file, trick the victim into opening it with the affected software, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
