MGASA-2022-0074 - Updated zxing-cpp packages fix security vulnerability Publication date: 18 Feb 2022 URL: https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2022-0074.html Type: security Affected Mageia releases: 8 CVE: CVE-2021-28021, CVE-2021-42715, CVE-2021-42716 Buffer overflow vulnerability in function stbi__extend_receive in stb_image.h in stb 2.26 via a crafted JPEG file. (CVE-2021-28021) An issue was discovered in stb stb_image.h 1.33 through 2.27. The HDR loader parsed truncated end-of-file RLE scanlines as an infinite sequence of zero-length runs. An attacker could potentially have caused denial of service in applications using stb_image by submitting crafted HDR files. (CVE-2021-42715) An issue was discovered in stb stb_image.h 2.27. The PNM loader incorrectly interpreted 16-bit PGM files as 8-bit when converting to RGBA, leading to a buffer overflow when later reinterpreting the result as a 16-bit buffer. An attacker could potentially have crashed a service using stb_image, or read up to 1024 bytes of non-consecutive heap data without control over the read location.

CVE-2016-3616 The cjpeg utility in libjpeg allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted file. This issue got fixed by the same patch that fixed CVE-2018-11213 and CVE-2018-11214. CVE-2018-1152 libjpeg-turbo has been found vulnerable to a denial of service vulnerability caused by a divide by zero when processing a crafted BMP image. The issue has been resolved by a boundary check. CVE-2018-11212 The alloc_sarray function in jmemmgr.c allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error) via a crafted file. The issue has been addressed by checking the image size when reading a targa file and throwing an error when image width or height is 0. CVE-2018-11213 CVE-2018-11214 The get_text_gray_row and get_text_rgb_row functions in rdppm.c both allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Segmentation fault) via a crafted file. By checking the range of integer values in PPM text files and adding checks to ensure values are within the specified range, both issues For Debian 8 "Jessie", these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.3.1-12+deb8u1.
