RHSA-2026:6732
Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-04-07 06:21 - Updated: 2026-04-22 19:37A flaw was found in libpng. A local attacker can exploit a buffer overflow vulnerability in the pngimage utility when processed with AddressSanitizer (ASan). This flaw causes memory leaks, leading to high memory usage and ultimately rendering the program unresponsive, resulting in a denial of service.
A flaw was found in libpng. This buffer overflow vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by exploiting the `png_create_read_struct()` function. This can lead to the affected system becoming unresponsive or crashing.
A heap buffer over-read vulnerability exists in libpng's png_do_quantize function when processing PNG files with malformed palette indices. The vulnerability occurs when palette_lookup array bounds are not validated against externally-supplied image data, allowing an attacker to craft a PNG file with out-of-range palette indices that trigger out-of-bounds memory access.
A buffer over read flaw has been discovered in libpng. A heap buffer over-read vulnerability exists in libpng's png_write_image_8bit function when processing 8-bit images through the simplified write API with convert_to_8bit enabled. The vulnerability affects 8-bit grayscale+alpha, RGB/RGBA, and images with incomplete row data. A conditional guard incorrectly allows 8-bit input to enter code expecting 16-bit input, causing reads up to 2 bytes beyond allocated buffer boundaries.
A buffer overflow flaw has been discovered in libpng. An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in png_image_read_composite when processing palette images with PNG_FLAG_OPTIMIZE_ALPHA enabled. The palette compositing code in png_init_read_transformations incorrectly applies background compositing during premultiplication, violating the invariant component ≤ alpha × 257 required by the simplified PNG API.
A buffer overflow flaw has been discovered in libpng. There is a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the libpng simplified API function png_image_finish_read when processing 16-bit interlaced PNGs with 8-bit output format. Attacker-crafted interlaced PNG files cause heap writes beyond allocated buffer bounds.
An out of bounds read vulnerability has been discovered in libpng. This vulnerability is in libpng's simplified API allows reading up to 1012 bytes beyond the png_sRGB_base[512] array when processing valid palette PNG images with partial transparency and gamma correction. The PNG files that trigger this vulnerability are valid per the PNG specification; the bug is in libpng's internal state management.
A flaw was found in libpng. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by manipulating the width/height arguments in the `do_pnm2png` function of the `pnm2png` component. This manipulation causes a heap-based buffer overflow, which could lead to information disclosure and denial of service (DoS).
A flaw was found in libpng, a reference library for processing PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image files. A local attacker could exploit a heap buffer over-read vulnerability in the `png_image_finish_read` function by tricking a user into processing a specially crafted interlaced 16-bit PNG file with an 8-bit output format and non-minimal row stride. This could lead to a denial of service (DoS) and potentially information disclosure.
A flaw was found in libpng, a reference library for PNG (Portable Network Graphics) raster image files. An integer truncation vulnerability exists in the png_write_image_16bit and png_write_image_8bit simplified write API functions. A local attacker could exploit this flaw by providing a negative row stride (for bottom-up image layouts) or a stride exceeding 65535 bytes, leading to a heap buffer over-read. This can result in information disclosure or a denial of service (DoS) to the system.
A heap based buffer overflow flaw has been discovered in LibPNG. Prior to version 1.6.55, an out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in the png_set_quantize() API function. When the function is called with no histogram and the number of colors in the palette is more than twice the maximum supported by the user's display, certain palettes will cause the function to enter into an infinite loop that reads past the end of an internal heap-allocated buffer. The images that trigger this vulnerability are valid per the PNG specification.
A flaw was found in libpng, a library used for processing PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image files. This vulnerability arises from improper memory management where a heap-allocated buffer is aliased between internal data structures. When specific functions are called, a freed memory region can still be referenced, leading to a use-after-free condition. An attacker could potentially exploit this to achieve arbitrary code execution or cause a denial of service.
A flaw was found in libpng. A remote attacker could exploit an out-of-bounds read and write vulnerability in the ARM/AArch64 Neon-optimized palette expansion path. This occurs when processing a final partial chunk of 8-bit paletted rows without verifying sufficient input pixels, leading to dereferencing pointers before the start of the row buffer and writing expanded pixel data to underflowed positions. This flaw can result in information disclosure and denial of service.
