CVE-2019-5060
An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the XPM image rendering function of SDL2_image 2.0.4.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.97%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the XPM image rendering function of SDL2_image 2.0.4. A specially crafted XPM image can cause an integer overflow in the colorhash function, allocating too small of a buffer. This buffer can then be written out of bounds, resulting in a heap overflow, ultimately ending in code execution. An attacker can display a specially crafted image to trigger this vulnerability.
