DescriptionNVD

libgphoto2 is a camera access and control library. Versions up to and including 2.5.33 have an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in ptp_unpack_OI() in camlibs/ptp2/ptp-pack.c (lines 530-563). The function validates len < PTP_oi_SequenceNumber (i.e., len < 48) but subsequently accesses offsets 48-56, up to 9 bytes beyond the validated boundary, via the Samsung Galaxy 64-bit objectsize detection heuristic. Commit 7c7f515bc88c3d0c4098ac965d313518e0ccbe33 fixes the issue.

Out-of-bounds read in libgphoto2 versions up to 2.5.33 allows local attackers with physical access to a USB-connected camera to trigger information disclosure or denial of service via malformed PTP protocol data during Samsung Galaxy device enumeration. The vulnerability exists in ptp_unpack_OI() which validates buffer boundaries at 48 bytes but subsequently reads up to 56 bytes, exceeding the boundary by 9 bytes. …
