CVE-2020-0182

Description

From CVE.org

In exif_entry_get_value of exif-entry.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android-10Android ID: A-147140917

Mitigation

This flaw could be mitigated by not passing untrusted input to libexif.

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).

Red Hat CVSS v3 Score Explanation

AV:N because libexif can be used to parse EXIF data on a server or machine accepting input from network. PR:N because in such a scenario, there would likely be no privileges required. C:L because the out-of-bounds read is limited to only a few bytes per entry. A:L because out-of-bounds reads are undefined behavior which could potentially cause a crash.
