NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libraw package and not the libraw package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

A boundary error within the "parse_tiff_ifd()" function (internal/dcraw_common.cpp) in LibRaw versions before 0.18.2 can be exploited to cause a memory corruption via e.g. a specially crafted KDC file with model set to "DSLR-A100" and containing multiple sequences of 0x100 and 0x14A TAGs.
