Description Sam Fowler 2018-03-14 04:49:57 UTC
Exempi through version 2.4.4 is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference in the XMPFiles/source/FormatSupport/WEBP_Support.cpp:WEBP::VP8XChunk class. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service via crafted file.

Created exempi tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1555156]

Comment 4 Riccardo Schirone 2018-04-27 13:10:28 UTC
Statement:

This issue did not affect the versions of Exempi as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 as they did not include support for WebP file format.
