NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream compat-exiv2-026-debugsource package and not the compat-exiv2-026-debugsource package as distributed by RHEL.

Exiv2 0.27.2 allows attackers to trigger a crash in Exiv2::getULong in types.cpp when called from Exiv2::Internal::CiffDirectory::readDirectory in crwimage_int.cpp, because there is no validation of the relationship of the total size to the offset and size.
