Soumettre #821189: Assimp commit 17c12da Heap-based Buffer Overflowinformation

TitreAssimp commit 17c12da Heap-based Buffer Overflow
DescriptionA heap-buffer-overflow vulnerability exists in Assimp's Half-Life 1 MDL loader within the `HL1MDLLoader::read_meshes()` function. The flaw is caused by insufficient bone index validation when parsing malformed MDL files. The file header declares a small number of bones (e.g., 1 bone), but the vertex data references an out-of-bounds bone index (e.g., index 5). The code directly accesses the bone array using the unvalidated index without boundary checks, leading to an out-of-bounds heap read, application crash, and potential information disclosure. Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability via a crafted MDL file to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition.
