There was a vulnerability in the strided image parsing code in libheif, a decoder/encoder for the HEIF and AVIF image formats.

An attacker could have exploited this through a crafted image file to cause a buffer overflow in linear memory during a memcpy call.



For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1.3.2-2+deb10u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your libheif packages.
