A heap buffer overflow was found in Exiv2 versions v0.27.3 and earlier. The heap overflow is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata into a crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the vulnerability to gain code execution, if they can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file. Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata. For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application, you need to add an extra command-line argument such as `insert`. The bug is fixed in version v0.27.4." } ] }, "impact": { "cvss": { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "NONE", "baseScore": 3.3, "baseSeverity": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "REQUIRED", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N", "version": "3.1" } }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-122 Heap-based Buffer Overflow" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/security/advisories/GHSA-jgm9-5fw5-pw9p", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/security/advisories/GHSA-jgm9-5fw5-pw9p" }, { "name": "https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/commit/f9308839198aca5e68a65194f151a1de92398f54", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/commit/f9308839198aca5e68a65194f151a1de92398f54" }, { "refsource": "FEDORA", "name": "FEDORA-2021-0b27f220bd", "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NDMZTVQAZSMLPTDVDYLBHAAF7I5QXVYQ/" }, { "refsource": "FEDORA", "name": "FEDORA-2021-dde4d7d47e", "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/K3HKXR6JOVKMBE4HY4FDXNVZGNCQG6T3/" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-jgm9-5fw5-pw9p", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } }
