Description
OpenEXR provides the specification and reference implementation of the EXR file format, an image storage format for the motion picture industry. In versions 3.3.0 through 3.3.6 and 3.4.0 through 3.4.4, a heap-buffer-overflow (OOB read) occurs in the `istream_nonparallel_read` function in `ImfContextInit.cpp` when parsing a malformed EXR file through a memory-mapped `IStream`. A signed integer subtraction produces a negative value that is implicitly converted to `size_t`, resulting in a massive length being passed to `memcpy`. Versions 3.3.7 and 3.4.5 contain a patch.
Analysis
OpenEXR versions 3.3.0-3.3.6 and 3.4.0-3.4.4 are vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow in file parsing due to improper integer handling when processing malformed EXR files, allowing attackers to trigger a denial of service through memory-mapped streams. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability. …
