Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A specially-crafted file can cause libjxl's decoder to read pixel data from uninitialized (but allocated) memory.
This can be done by causing the decoder to reference an outside-image-bound area in a subsequent patches. An incorrect optimization causes the decoder to omit populating those areas.
AnalysisAI
A specially-crafted file can cause libjxl's decoder to read pixel data from uninitialized (but allocated) memory. This can be done by causing the decoder to reference an outside-image-bound area in a subsequent patches.
Technical ContextAI
Classified as CWE-908 (Use of Uninitialized Resource). A specially-crafted file can cause libjxl's decoder to read pixel data from uninitialized (but allocated) memory.
This can be done by causing the decoder to reference an outside-image-bound area in a subsequent patches. An incorrect optimization causes the decoder to omit populating those areas.
