Technical details
The importdrw plugin fails to validate the y-offset parameter when decoding bitmap scanlines from DRW files, allowing an attacker to write decoded image data beyond the heap buffer. The vulnerability occurs during image decoding where an unvalidated yoff value is used to select scanlines without bounds checking. An attacker can craft a malicious DRW file that triggers out-of-bounds writes on heap memory, leading to memory corruption, denial of service, or code execution.
