Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Sleuth Kit (TSK) version 4.4.2

Description The issue is triggered by opening a crafted ISO 9660 image, which causes an out-of-bounds read in the iso9660 proc dir() function in tsk/fs/iso9660 dent.c in libtskfs.a. This can be demonstrated using the fls tool.

Recommendations For version 4.4.2, consider avoiding the use of crafted ISO 9660 images until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the iso9660 proc dir() function in tsk/fs/iso9660 dent.c to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
