Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4645)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within tools/tiffcp.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application using the affected library, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0800)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the tiffcrop() function in tools/tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted TIFF file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0804)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30086)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the tiffcp() function in tiffcp.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to trigger an out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30774)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error related to TIFFTAG_INKNAMES and TIFFTAG_NUMBEROFINKS value. 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.
