Technical details
An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in Samsung's rlottie library due to an integer overflow in the SW_FT_Outline point and contour counters. The flaw is triggered when the library processes a maliciously crafted animation file, leading to a buffer overflow. An attacker can exploit this by convincing a user to open a specially crafted file (User Interaction required), potentially resulting in a denial-of-service (application crash) or limited data integrity impact. The issue was addressed in commit dcfde72eae1b0464dc0dd760aec00ada6a148635.
