NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream exempi package and not the exempi package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in Exempi through 2.4.4. A certain case of a 0xffffffff length is mishandled in XMPFiles/source/FormatSupport/PSIR_FileWriter.cpp, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read in the PSD_MetaHandler::CacheFileData() function.
