Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10001)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition.
The vulnerability exists in the decode_init function in libavcodec/utvideodec.c due to insufficient input validation. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted AVI file that submits malicious input, trigger a out-of-bounds read and cause the service to crash.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-6912)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the decode_plane function in libavcodec/utvideodec.c due to nsufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted AVI, trigger out-of-array read and cause the application to crash.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7557)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
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:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the decode_init function due to out-of-bounds read. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted Audio Video Interleave (AVI) file with the affected application, trigger memory corruption and cause the service to crash.
4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-7751)
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:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the svg_probe function in the libavformat/img2dec.c source code file due to improper handling of XML files. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted XML file, trigger infinite loop and cause the service to crash.
5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-9841)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
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:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the export function in the libavfilter/vf_signature.c source code file when processing files with long filenames. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file with a long filename, trigger out-of-array access and cause the service to crash.
6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12730)
CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in aa_read_header() function in libavformat/aadec.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted media file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and crash the affected application.
7) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-13312)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing media files in block_cmp() function in libavcodec/zmbvenc.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted media file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger 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.
8) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-13390)
CWE-ID: CWE-369 - Divide By Zero
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a divide-by-zero condition in the "adx_write_trailer" function in the "libavformat/rawenc.c" file. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file and crash the affected application.
9) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17539)
CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the avcodec_open2 in libavcodec/utils.c in in FFmpeg. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted media content to the affected application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allows an attacker to compromise the affected system.
10) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17542)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the vqa_decode_chunk because of an out-of-array access in vqa_decode_init in libavcodec/vqavideo.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger 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.
