Advisory Version: 1.2
References: CVE-2023-4863, CVE-2023-5217
Summary
Google recently announced heap buffer overflow vulnerabilities in certain versions of the libwebp and libvpx libraries.
The libwebp library is used to render WebP graphics file format images and can be found in Google's Chrome web browser as well as other applications and software frameworks that render the WebP image format. The libvbpx library is used to implement the VP8 and VP9 video coding formats and is widely used in content delivery.
These vulnerabilities (currently evaluated by CVE-2023-4863 for libwebp and CVE-2023-5217 for libvpx) could allow an attacker, via crafted input, to cause a heap buffer overflow, potentially allowing malicious code execution or unauthorized access.
