CVE-2022-48622

gnome: heap memory corruption on gdk-pixbuf

Published Jan 26, 2024 CVSS 3.1 · 7.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In GNOME GdkPixbuf (aka gdk-pixbuf) through 2.42.10, the ANI (Windows animated cursor) decoder encounters heap memory corruption (in ani_load_chunk in io-ani.c) when parsing chunks in a crafted .ani file. A crafted file could allow an attacker to overwrite heap metadata, leading to a denial of service or code execution attack. This occurs in gdk_pixbuf_set_option() in gdk-pixbuf.c.
