Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-1626)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The opj_pi_update_decode_poc function in pi.c in OpenJPEG, as used in PDFium in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.109, miscalculates a certain layer index value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted PDF document.
