Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in InternationalColorConsortium iccDEV up to 2.3.1.1/2.3.1.2. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is the function CIccProfile::CheckHeader. The manipulation of the argument tag tables/offsets/size with an unknown input leads to a integer overflow vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-190. The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound, when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This can introduce other weaknesses when the calculation is used for resource management or execution control. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

iccDEV provides libraries and tools for interacting with, manipulating, and applying ICC color management profiles. In versions 2.3.1.1 and below, an integer overflow vulnerability exists in icValidateStatus CIccProfile::CheckHeader() when user-controllable input is incorporated into profile data unsafely. Tampering with tag tables, offsets, or size fields can trigger parsing errors, memory corruption, or DoS, potentially enabling arbitrary Code Execution or bypassing application logic. This issue has been fixed in version 2.3.1.2.

The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-24403 since 01/22/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be launched remotely.
