DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in LibRaw up to 0.22.0. This affects the function LibRaw::nikon_load_padded_packed_raw of the file src/decoders/decoders_libraw.cpp of the component TIFF/NEF. Executing a manipulation of the argument load_flags/raw_width can lead to out-of-bounds read. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. Upgrading to version 0.22.1 mitigates this issue. This patch is called b8397cd45657b84e88bd1202528d1764265f185c. It is advisable to upgrade the affected component.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in LibRaw up to 0.22.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause denial of service via manipulation of load_flags or raw_width parameters in the TIFF/NEF decoder (nikon_load_padded_packed_raw function). Publicly available exploit code exists, and vendor-released patch version 0.22.1 is available. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The CVSS 5.3 score reflects a low-complexity, unauthenticated network attack with no confidentiality or integrity impact, limited to availability (denial of service). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malicious Nikon NEF image file with specially modified load_flags or raw_width values that exceed expected bounds. When a user or automated system processes this file using an application linked against LibRaw 0.22.0 or earlier (e.g., uploading a photo to a web-based image editor), the nikon_load_padded_packed_raw function performs an out-of-bounds read, causing the application to crash or potentially leak adjacent memory contents. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: LibRaw version 0.22.1 or later. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
