CVE-2020-36332

A flaw was found in libwebp in versions before 1.0.1. When reading a file libwebp allocates an excessive amount of memory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to the service availability.

The libwebp packages provide a library and tools for the WebP graphics format. WebP is an image format with a lossy compression of digital photographic images. WebP consists of a codec based on the VP8 format, and a container based on the Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF). Webmasters, web developers and browser developers can use WebP to compress, archive, and distribute digital images more efficiently.

Security Fix(es):

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in WebPMuxCreateInternal (CVE-2018-25009)

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in ApplyFilter() (CVE-2018-25010)

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in WebPMuxCreateInternal() (CVE-2018-25012)

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in ShiftBytes() (CVE-2018-25013)

• libwebp: use of uninitialized value in ReadSymbol() (CVE-2018-25014)

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in ChunkVerifyAndAssign() in mux/muxread.c (CVE-2020-36330)

• libwebp: out-of-bounds read in ChunkAssignData() in mux/muxinternal.c (CVE-2020-36331)

• libwebp: excessive memory allocation when reading a file (CVE-2020-36332)

It was discovered that libwebp incorrectly handled certain malformed images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted image file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause libwebp to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
