Soumettre #821177: Assimp commit 17c12da NULL Pointer Dereferenceinformation

TitreAssimp commit 17c12da NULL Pointer Dereference
DescriptionA NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in Assimp commit 17c12da, located in the `glTF2Importer::ImportEmbeddedTextures` function in `code/AssetLib/glTF2/glTF2Importer.cpp` at line 1725. The flaw is triggered by processing maliciously crafted glTF files containing malformed `mimeType` values that lack the '/' character. The application fails to validate the return value of the `strchr` function; when `strchr` returns NULL due to the missing delimiter, unsafe pointer arithmetic (+1) generates an invalid memory address (0x1), which is then dereferenced in a `strncmp` operation. This causes an invalid memory read and immediate application crash (segmentation fault). Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability by supplying a malicious glTF file to execute a denial-of-service (DoS) attack against affected Assimp-based applications without requiring any privileges or user interaction.
