Summary
=======

The package exiv2 before version 0.27.4-1 is vulnerable to multiple
issues including arbitrary code execution, denial of service and
information disclosure.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 0.27.4-1.

# pacman -Syu "exiv2>=0.27.4-1"

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 0.27.4.

Workaround
==========

None.

Description
===========

- CVE-2021-3482 (arbitrary code execution)

A security issue was found in Exiv2 in versions before version 0.27.4.
Improper input validation of the rawData.size property in
Jp2Image::readMetadata() in jp2image.cpp can lead to a heap-based
buffer overflow via a crafted JPG image containing malicious EXIF data.
An attacker could potentially exploit the vulnerability to gain code
execution, if they can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted
image file.

- CVE-2021-29457 (arbitrary code execution)

A heap buffer overflow was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. The
heap overflow is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata into a
crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the
vulnerability to gain code execution, if they can trick the victim into
running Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when _writing_ the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than _reading_ the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29458 (denial of service)

An out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. The
out-of-bounds read is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata
into a crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the
vulnerability to cause a denial of service by crashing Exiv2, if they
can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29463 (denial of service)

An out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. The
out-of-bounds read is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata
into a crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the
vulnerability to cause a denial of service by crashing Exiv2, if they
can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29464 (arbitrary code execution)

A heap buffer overflow was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. The
heap overflow is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata into a
crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the
vulnerability to gain code execution, if they can trick the victim into
running Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29470 (denial of service)

An out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. The
out-of-bounds read is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata
into a crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the
vulnerability to cause a denial of service by crashing Exiv2, if they
can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29473 (denial of service)

An out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 before version 0.27.4. An
attacker could potentially exploit the vulnerability to cause a denial
of service by crashing Exiv2, if they can trick the victim into running
Exiv2 on a crafted image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as insert.

- CVE-2021-29623 (information disclosure)

A read of uninitialized memory was found in Exiv2 before version
0.27.4. The read of uninitialized memory is triggered when Exiv2 is
used to read the metadata of a crafted image file. An attacker could
potentially exploit the vulnerability to leak a few bytes of stack
memory, if they can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted
image file.

- CVE-2021-32617 (denial of service)

An inefficient algorithm (quadratic complexity) was found in Exiv2
before version 0.27.4. The inefficient algorithm is triggered when
Exiv2 is used to write metadata into a crafted image file. An attacker
could potentially exploit the vulnerability to cause a denial of
service, if they can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted
image file.

Note that this bug is only triggered when _writing_ the metadata, which
is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than _reading_ the metadata.
For example, to trigger the bug in the Exiv2 command-line application,
you need to add an extra command-line argument such as rm.

Impact
======

Reading or writing EXIF metadata of a crafted image file could lead to
arbitrary code execution.
