Description
From CVE.org
In Exiv2 0.27.99.0, there is an out-of-bounds read in Exiv2::MrwImage::readMetadata() in mrwimage.cpp. It could result in denial of service.
Statement
This issue did not affect the versions of exiv2 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, and 8 as variables MemIo::Impl::size_ and MemIo::Impl::idx_ are of type long, making it impossible to trigger the integer wraparound that would lead to an out-of-bound read.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
