This affects versions of the package exifreader before 4.39.0. A crafted image containing an ICC mluc tag can set an attacker-controlled record count together with a zero record size. During parsing, ExifReader repeatedly processes the same record and appends entries to an array without sufficient bounds validation, causing excessive memory growth. In applications that parse attacker-supplied images, this may lead to denial of service through memory exhaustion.
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service in ExifReader (npm package mattiasw/ExifReader) before 4.39.0 allows remote attackers to exhaust memory by submitting a crafted image whose ICC profile contains a malformed mluc tag. A specially crafted record count combined with a zero record size causes the parser to loop on the same record while continuously appending entries to an array, driving memory growth until the host process crashes. …
