CVE-2026-27692 Details
Description
iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools for working with ICC color management profiles. In versions up to and including 2.3.1.4, heap-buffer-overflow read occurs during CIccTagTextDescription::Release() when strlen() reads past a heap buffer while parsing ICC profile XML text description tags, causing a crash. Commit 29d088840b962a7cdd35993dfabc2cb35a049847 fixes the issue. No known workarounds are available.
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in iccDEV versions prior to 2.3.1.4. The issue arises in the CIccTagTextDescription::Release() function, where the strlen() function improperly reads beyond the end of a heap buffer while parsing XML text description tags in ICC profiles. This out-of-bounds read can lead to a crash and potentially disclose memory contents. The vulnerability requires user interaction, as it involves processing supplied XML or profile data.
Users can update to iccDEV version 2.3.1.4 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
