Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions djvulibre versions 3.5.28 and earlier

Description A flaw in the DJVU::filter bv() function allows for an out of bounds write via a crafted djvu file, potentially leading to an application crash. The vulnerability may also enable a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system using a specially crafted djvu file.

Recommendations For versions 3.5.28 and earlier, consider disabling the DJVU::filter bv() function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to djvu files from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
