Out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Samsung Open Source Escargot allows Resource Leak Exposure.This issue affects Escargot: 97e8115ab1110bc502b4b5e4a0c689a71520d335.
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds read in Samsung Open Source Escargot JavaScript engine allows local attackers to leak sensitive memory contents and cause denial of service. Affects Escargot commit 97e8115ab1110bc502b4b5e4a0c689a71520d335 and potentially other versions; the vulnerability requires local access and specific conditions to trigger but can expose confidential data and crash the application without authentication. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
Escargot is Samsung's lightweight JavaScript engine optimized for embedded devices and smart TV platforms. The vulnerability is an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125), a memory safety violation where the application reads memory beyond the intended buffer boundaries. This occurs in the engine's core parsing or execution logic, likely during string or array indexing operations. The CVSS vector indicates local attack vector (AV:L), suggesting the attacker must have local code execution or application access on the target device. Out-of-bounds reads can leak heap metadata, stack variables, or sensitive data stored in adjacent memory regions. The specific commit hash provided (97e8115ab1110bc502b4b5e4a0c689a71520d335) indicates a known affected version, though the wildcard CPE suggests multiple versions may be vulnerable.
RemediationAI
Samsung users should obtain the patched version of Escargot that includes the fix from GitHub pull request #1554 (https://github.com/Samsung/escargot/pull/1554). Device manufacturers and embedded system developers using Escargot should update their integration to include the out-of-bounds read fix. For Samsung appliances and smart TVs, check for firmware updates that incorporate the patched Escargot engine. Until patching is available, limiting local access to devices running Escargot and disabling JavaScript execution from untrusted sources provides temporary mitigation. Organizations should monitor Samsung security advisories for specific device firmware versions addressing this vulnerability.
