Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libexif (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to an integer overflow when parsing the MNOTE entry data of the input file, which can cause Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Information Disclosure. This may allow a remote attacker to access confidential information or cause a service disruption. Additionally, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check in the mnote pentax entry get value function, which could lead to remote code execution without requiring additional execution privileges. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
