libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. In versions 1.21.2 and below, a crafted 800-byte HEIF sequence file causes an infinite loop in Box_stts::get_sample_duration(), consuming 100% CPU indefinitely with zero progress, leading to DoS. The loop has no iteration limit or timeout and is triggered during file open (parsing) - before any user interaction or image decoding. The process stays alive (no crash, no error logged), making it invisible to crash-based monitoring. This issue has been fixed in version 1.22.0.
AnalysisAI
Infinite CPU loop denial-of-service in libheif 1.21.2 and below allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to permanently exhaust a victim application's CPU by delivering a crafted 800-byte HEIF sequence file. The vulnerability triggers during file parsing in Box_stts::get_sample_duration() before any image decoding occurs, meaning any application that opens user-supplied HEIF files is exposed at the moment of file open. …
