Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
xmp toolkit versions prior to 1.9.0
Description
The issue arises when C++ exceptions are raised within the
XmpFile::close function, leading to undefined behavior, typically a process abort. This can be triggered by a race condition causing file I/O errors during the close call. The estimated number of potentially affected devices is not specified. There is a known instance where this issue occurred, demonstrated by a race condition in a specific scenario.Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.9.0, update to version 1.9.0 to safely handle exceptions and avoid undefined behavior. As a temporary workaround, consider using the new
XmpFile::try close API to receive and process error results, allowing for better error handling until the update can be applied. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
