8) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-5683)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in QImage when parsing an ICNS format image file. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-58183)

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

The vulnerability exists in archive/tar due to the tar.Reader does not set a maximum size on the number of sparse region data blocks in GNU tar pax 1.0 sparse files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted archive to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-58364)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when handling requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Missing Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47176)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization. A remote attacker can introduce a malicious printer to the system by sending specially crafted packets to port 631/UDP and then execute arbitrary OS commands on the system when a print job is started.


12) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-8176)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the get_histogram() function in tools/tiffmedian.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted image to the application and execute arbitrary code on the system.


13) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-8961)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing files in tiffcrop.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


14) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-9900)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing image files. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted image file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


15) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22872)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform code injection attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of tags with unquoted attribute values that end with a solidus character (/). The tokenizer can interpret such tags as self-closing, leading to content following such tags as being placed in the wrong scope during DOM construction.


16) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10543)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in nested regular expression quantifiers. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow, leading to 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.


17) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-10878)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

21) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22870)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to alter application's behavior.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of an IPv6 zone ID as a hostname component, when matching hosts against proxy patterns. For instance the NO_PROXY environment variable is set to "*.example.com", a request to "[::1%25.example.com]:80` will incorrectly match and not be proxied. A remote attacker can alter application behavior and potentially  gain access to sensitive information or functionality.


22) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-13978)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the t2p_read_tiff_init() function in tools/tiff2pdf.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted image to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


23) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22195)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the xmlattr filter. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


24) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-11226)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing configuration file. A remote attacker can trick the victim into using a specially crafted configuration file and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires presence of Janino library and Spring Framework on the user's class path.
