Technical details
The vulnerability is an integer overflow or wraparound in Adobe DNG SDK versions 1.7.1 2410 and earlier, affecting the file parsing logic. The integer overflow occurs in a component responsible for processing DNG image metadata or pixel data, leading to a heap or stack buffer overflow that enables arbitrary code execution. The attack requires user interaction—a victim must open a malicious DNG file in an application linked against the vulnerable SDK. No authentication or special privileges are needed beyond opening the file. Patches or mitigations should be available from Adobe for affected SDK versions.
