CVE-2019-12211

When FreeImage 3.18.0 reads a tiff file, it will be handed to the Load function of the PluginTIFF.cpp file, but a memcpy occurs in which the destination address and the size of the copied data are not considered, resulting in a heap overflow.

When FreeImage 3.18.0 reads a tiff file, it will be handed to the Load function of the PluginTIFF.cpp file, but a memcpy occurs in which the destination address and the size of the copied data are not considered, resulting in a heap overflow.

The updated packages fix security vulnerabilities:

When FreeImage 3.18.0 reads a tiff file, it will be handed to the Load function of the PluginTIFF.cpp file, but a memcpy occurs in which the destination address and the size of the copied data are not considered, resulting in a heap overflow. (CVE-2019-12211)

When FreeImage 3.18.0 reads a special TIFF file, the TIFFReadDirectory function in PluginTIFF.cpp always returns 1, leading to stack exhaustion. (CVE-2019-12213)

These are all security issues fixed in the freeimage-devel-3.18.0-4.4 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.

It was discovered that FreeImage incorrectly handled certain memory operations. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted TIFF file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause a heap buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service attack. (CVE-2019-12211)

It was discovered that FreeImage incorrectly processed images under certain circumstances. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted TIFF file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a stack exhaustion condition, resulting in a denial of service attack. (CVE-2019-12213)

It was discovered that FreeImage incorrectly handled certain memory operations. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted TIFF file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause a heap buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service attack. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-12211)

It was discovered that FreeImage incorrectly processed certain images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted image file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-21427, CVE-2020-21428)

It was discovered that FreeImage incorrectly processed certain images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted PFM file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-22524)
