CVE-2024-24792 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade golang.org/x/image/tiff to version 0.18.0 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Validation of Array Index due to improper sanitization of palette indices when parsing palette-color images. An attacker could craft a malicious image with color indices out of range of the actual palette, which will eventually result in a panic when the consumer tries to read the color at any corrupted pixel.
Note:
This issue was reported before as CVE-2023-36308.
