CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/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 boundary error on 32-bit systems in SFW decoder. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
2) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-42050)
CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
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 cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to stack-based buffer overflow in XTileImage when processing a malicious MIFF file in the display tool after a tile is right-clicked to invoke the Load / Update menu item. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a crafted MIFF file to cause a denial of service.
User interaction is required to open the crafted file and invoke the menu item.
