Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-27798)

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

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in WaveletDenoise with small images. A local attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-27799)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the DJVU image format handler. A local 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.


3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-28690)

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/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 execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the MNG encoder. A remote attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


4) Access of Uninitialized Pointer (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-28691)

CWE-ID: CWE-824 - Access of Uninitialized Pointer

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 compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to uninitialized pointer dereference in the JBIG decoder. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack on the system.


5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-28692)

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

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in MAT decoder within 32-bit arithmetic. A remote attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and gain access to sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-28693)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/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 execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in DIB coder. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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