SAIL is a cross-platform library for loading and saving images with support for animation, metadata, and ICC profiles. Prior to commit 45d48d1f2e8e0d73e80bc1fd5310cb57f4547302, the TGA codec's RLE decoder in tga.c has an asymmetric bounds check vulnerability. The run-packet path (line 297) correctly clamps the repeat count to the remaining buffer space, but the raw-packet path (line 305-311) has no equivalent bounds check. This allows writing up to 496 bytes of attacker-controlled data past the end of a heap buffer. Commit 45d48d1f2e8e0d73e80bc1fd5310cb57f4547302 patches the issue.
AnalysisAI
Heap buffer overflow in SAIL image library's TGA decoder allows remote code execution via malformed RLE-compressed TGA files against all versions prior to commit 45d48d1. Network-accessible applications processing untrusted TGA images can be fully compromised without authentication or user interaction (CVSS 9.8). …

RemediationAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all systems and applications using SAIL library versions prior to commit 45d48d1f2e8e0d73e80bc1fd5310cb57f4547302; isolate or disable TGA file processing on externally-facing services. Within 7 days: Apply vendor patch by updating SAIL to the version containing commit 45d48d1 or later across all affected systems. …
