Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5815)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow condition in the parse_qt()function, as defined in the internal/dcraw_common.cpp source code file in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.12. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted Apple QuickTime file, trigger an infinite loop condition and cause the service to crash.

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a divide by zero integer overflow condition in the identify() function, as defined in the internal/dcraw_common.cpp source code file in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.12. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted NOKIARAW file, trigger an infinite loop condition and cause the service to crash.
