Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-13873)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to buffer over-read in H5O_chunk_deserialize in H5Ocache.c. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-13870)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5O_link_decode in H5Olink.c. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.


3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-13869)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

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


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a memcpy parameter overlap in the function H5O_link_decode in H5Olink.c.


4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-17506)

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:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In HDF5 1.10.1, there is an out of bounds read vulnerability in the function H5Opline_pline_decode in H5Opline.c in libhdf5.a. For example, h5dump would crash when someone opens a crafted hdf5 file.


5) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-17432)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in H5O_sdspace_encode() in H5Osdspace.c in the HDF HDF5. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening specially crafted HDF5 file and perform a denial of service attack.


6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-17435)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the H5O_attr_decode() function in H5Oattr.c in the HDF HDF5 when converting an HDF file to GIF file. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted HDF5 file and perform a denial of service attack.
