Descriptions

An issue was discovered in Exempi through 2.4.4. A certain case of a 0xffffffff length is mishandled in XMPFiles/source/FormatSupport/PSIR_FileWriter.cpp, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read in the PSD_MetaHandler::CacheFileData() function.

Se ha descubierto un problema en Exempi hasta su versión 2.4.4. Cierto caso de longitud 0xffffffff se gestiona de manera incorrecta en XMPFiles/source/FormatSupport/PSIR_FileWriter.cpp, lo que conduce a una sobrelectura de búfer basada en memoria dinámica (heap) en la función PSD_MetaHandler::CacheFileData().

An integer wraparound, leading to a buffer overflow, was found in Exempi in the way it handles Adobe Photoshop Images. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service via a crafted image file.
