Discussion

libexif Image Tag Remote Integer Overflow Vulnerability

The libexif library is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability because the software fails to ensure that integer values are not overrun.

Successful exploits of this vulnerability allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of an application using the vulnerable library. Failed attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
