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

The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when handling metadata of image files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted image to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34334)

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

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:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when processing metadata of image files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted image to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-37620)

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:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing metadata of a crafted image file. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted image file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-37622)

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

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:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in JpegBase::printStructure(). A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


5) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34335)

CWE-ID: CWE-369 - Divide By Zero

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:Green


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