Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 9 vulnerabilities.
1) Stack-based buffer overflow
EUVDB-ID: #VU16661
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5809
CWE-ID:
CWE-121 - Stack-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 within the "LibRaw::parse_exif()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.9. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted input, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
