High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: chmlib versions prior to 0.39

Description: The issue allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted page block length in a CHM file, which triggers memory corruption. Exploitation of this issue may lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information and can be carried out remotely.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 0.39, update to version 0.39 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of crafted CHM files until a patch is applied. Restrict access to CHM files from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
