Out-of-bounds write vulnerability in Samsung Open Source Escargot allows Overflow Buffers.
This issue affects Escargot: 36f5fb58366a67b713c02f6fd985e924fcc09e31.
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds write in Samsung's Escargot JavaScript engine allows attacker-supplied scripts to corrupt memory through the ArrayBuffer.prototype.transfer() built-in, with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (CVSS 8.8). The flaw stems from a missing length-bounds check when transferring an ArrayBuffer to a new byte length, enabling writes past the allocated buffer that can lead to remote code execution if a victim runs the malicious script. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no EPSS or CISA KEV data was provided.
Technical ContextAI
Escargot (cpe:2.3:a:samsung_open_source:escargot) is Samsung's lightweight, memory-efficient ECMAScript engine designed for embedded and resource-constrained environments such as IoT devices and Tizen/smart-TV appliances (consistent with the 'samsung.tv_appliance' reporter). The root cause is CWE-787 (Out-of-bounds Write), located in the ArrayBuffer.prototype.transfer implementation in src/builtins/BuiltinArrayBuffer.cpp (builtinArrayBufferTransfer). Per the PR #1579 diff, the vulnerable code failed to (1) re-check for a detached buffer and (2) validate that the requested newByteLength does not exceed the buffer's maxLength before performing the transfer/copy. The fix adds throwTypeErrorIfDetached() and a RangeError when newByteLength > maxLength, preventing the engine from copying or sizing beyond the legitimate buffer bounds.
RemediationAI
Upstream fix available (PR/commit); released patched version not independently confirmed - rebuild or update Escargot to a revision that incorporates the merge of https://github.com/Samsung/escargot/pull/1579, which adds the detached-buffer check and the newByteLength-versus-maxLength RangeError guard in src/builtins/BuiltinArrayBuffer.cpp. Because no tagged patched release version is present in the provided data, integrators embedding Escargot should pull the fixed commit directly and recompile downstream products. Where immediate patching is not possible, the most effective compensating control is to restrict the engine to trusted JavaScript only and avoid executing untrusted/remote script content (trade-off: breaks any feature relying on third-party or dynamically loaded scripts); if the runtime exposes a configuration hook, disabling or shimming ArrayBuffer.prototype.transfer would remove the vulnerable path at the cost of breaking legitimate transfer/resizable-ArrayBuffer functionality.
