CVE-2024-32616

CVSS v3.1

7.4

High

VectorAV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HDF5 Library versions prior to 1.14.4
Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer over-read in the H5O dtype encode helper() function in the H5Odtype.c file of the HDF5 library. This can allow an attacker to impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. Exploitation of the vulnerability may also lead to a denial of service.
Recommendations For HDF5 Library versions prior to 1.14.4, update to version 1.14.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the H5O dtype encode helper() function in the H5Odtype.c file until a patch is available.
