AI Analysis

Impact

LibRaw 0.21 contains a buffer overflow flaw in the stretch() function (src/libraw_cxx.cpp) and the fuji_rotate() function (src/decoders/fuji.cpp). The overflow can be triggered by a specially crafted RAW image file, potentially allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code when the library processes such a file, as categorized by CWE‑122.

Affected Systems

This vulnerability affects only deployments that use LibRaw version 0.21 to process RAW image files. No vendor or product names are listed, so any system that imports this library and processes images (particularly Fuji camera data) is potentially impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 highlights the high severity of this issue. The EPSS score is not available and it is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, but a buffer overflow remains a critical attack vector. The likely attack path involves an attacker supplying a malicious RAW file to a system that uses LibRaw 0.21 for image processing; if exploited, it could lead to full control over the affected process.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update to a LibRaw release that contains the fix, such as version 0.22 or later
  • Validate or sanitize RAW files before passing them to LibRaw to reduce the risk of triggering the overflow
  • Limit or disable processing of untrusted RAW files from external sources
