CWE
  • CWE-123 - Write-what-where Condition
  • CWE-134 - Use of Externally-Controlled Format String
Summary
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to ImageMagick versions 6.9.13-28 and 7.1.2-2, a format string bug vulnerability exists in InterpretImageFilename function where user input is directly passed to FormatLocaleString without proper sanitization. An attacker can overwrite arbitrary memory regions, enabling a wide range of attacks from heap overflow to remote code execution. This issue has been patched in versions 6.9.13-28 and 7.1.2-2.

CVE-2025-62164 (GCVE-0-2025-62164)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5
Published
2025-11-21 01:18
Modified
2025-11-24 18:12
CWE
  • CWE-20 - Improper Input Validation
  • CWE-123 - Write-what-where Condition
  • CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
  • CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds Write
Summary
vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models (LLMs). From versions 0.10.2 to before 0.11.1, a memory corruption vulnerability could lead to a crash (denial-of-service) and potentially remote code execution (RCE), exists in the Completions API endpoint. When processing user-supplied prompt embeddings, the endpoint loads serialized tensors using torch.load() without sufficient validation. Due to a change introduced in PyTorch 2.8.0, sparse tensor integrity checks are disabled by default. As a result, maliciously crafted tensors can bypass internal bounds checks and trigger an out-of-bounds memory write during the call to to_dense(). This memory corruption can crash vLLM and potentially lead to code execution on the server hosting vLLM. This issue has been patched in version 0.11.1.

CVE-2025-9900 (GCVE-0-2025-9900)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5
Published
2025-09-23 16:26
Modified
2025-11-24 21:02
CWE
  • CWE-123 - Write-what-where Condition
Summary
A flaw was found in Libtiff. This vulnerability is a "write-what-where" condition, triggered when the library processes a specially crafted TIFF image file. By providing an abnormally large image height value in the file's metadata, an attacker can trick the library into writing attacker-controlled color data to an arbitrary memory location. This memory corruption can be exploited to cause a denial of service (application crash) or to achieve arbitrary code execution with the permissions of the user.
