| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
HDF5 versions 1.14.3 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the
H5Z filter scaleoffset function of the HDF5 library. This overflow occurs due to the lack of size checking for input data during the copying process. The exploitation of this issue can lead to the corruption of the instruction pointer, resulting in denial of service or potential code execution. It may also allow a remote attacker to impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.Recommendations
For HDF5 versions 1.14.3 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider disabling the
H5Z filter scaleoffset function until a patch is available.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.DoS
