4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools that allow for the interaction, manipulation, and application of International Color Consortium (ICC) color management profiles. Versions prior to 2.3.1.2 have a Type Confusion vulnerability in CIccSegmentedCurveXml::ToXml() at IccXML/IccLibXML/IccMpeXml.cpp. This vulnerability affects users of the iccDEV library who process ICC color profiles. Version 2.3.1.2 contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.
AnalysisAI
Type confusion in iccDEV versions before 2.3.1.2 allows attackers to corrupt memory and achieve high-impact outcomes including code execution, data theft, and denial of service when processing malicious ICC color profiles. The vulnerability exists in the CIccSegmentedCurveXml::ToXml() function and affects any application using the iccDEV library to handle color management data. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, though a patch is available in version 2.3.1.2 and later.
Technical ContextAI
Classified as CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation). Affects Iccdev. iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools that allow for the interaction, manipulation, and application of International Color Consortium (ICC) color management profiles. Versions prior to 2.3.1.2 have a Type Confusion vulnerability in CIccSegmentedCurveXml::ToXml() at IccXML/IccLibXML/IccMpeXml.cpp. This vulnerability affects users of the iccDEV library who process ICC color profiles. Version 2.3.1.2 contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.
