Description

This security bulletin contains information about 9 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59933)

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

CVSSv4: 5.1 [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]


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

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


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-33327)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in the vipsload operation when parsing a crafted image file with incorrectly determined dimensions. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted image file to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.


3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-33328)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in the gifload operation when processing GIF images on 32-bit systems. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted GIF image to cause a denial of service.

Only 32-bit systems are affected.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35590)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the EXIF decoder when processing crafted EXIF metadata. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted EXIF metadata to cause a denial of service.

The issue can result in a null pointer dereference and crash in libexif after invalid EXIF tag group ranges are passed for decoding.


5) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35591)

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

CVSSv4: 8.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer overflow in the tiffload operation when decoding a TIFF image containing a crafted JPEG or JPEG2000-encoded tile. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted TIFF image to execute arbitrary code.


6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-69242)

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

CVSSv4: 7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service and disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow leading to a heap-based buffer overflow in libvips TIFF image processing when parsing a crafted many-band TIFF image. A local user can supply a specially crafted TIFF image to cause a denial of service and disclose sensitive information.

Memory may be accessed at attacker-controlled negative offsets within mmap-resident regions, and user interaction is not required.


7) Integer Overflow to Buffer Overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-70651)

CWE-ID: CWE-680 - Integer Overflow to Buffer Overflow

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow to buffer overflow in dimension handling in the ImageMagick-based TIFF reader when processing a crafted multi-page TIFF image. A local user can supply a specially crafted multi-page TIFF image to cause a denial of service.

Only libvips builds compiled without libtiff support and with ImageMagick support are vulnerable.


8) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-70653)

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

CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a heap-based buffer overflow in the radiance image decoder when parsing a well-crafted run length encoded radiance image. A local user can supply a specially crafted image to disclose sensitive information.

Only libvips builds with support for loading radiance images are vulnerable.


9) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-70654)

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

CVSSv4: 5.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer overflow in the VipsForeignLoadPpm operation when processing untrusted, uncompressed PPM images from a custom source. A local user can supply a specially crafted PPM image to cause a denial of service.

Only applications that define their own custom libvips sources and use them to process untrusted, uncompressed PPM images are vulnerable.
