AI-suggested
European organizations should immediately upgrade all instances of iccDEV to version 2.3.1.3 or later to remediate the vulnerability. Where upgrading is not immediately feasible, implement strict input validation and filtering to block untrusted or malformed ICC profiles from being processed. Employ application whitelisting and sandboxing techniques for software handling ICC profiles to contain potential exploitation. Monitor systems for unusual crashes or behavior indicative of memory corruption. Educate users about the risks of opening untrusted files, especially ICC profiles embedded in documents or images. Incorporate vulnerability scanning and patch management processes specifically targeting imaging and color management libraries. For critical environments, consider disabling automatic processing of ICC profiles or isolating such processing in hardened environments. Collaborate with vendors and suppliers to ensure their products are updated and secure against this vulnerability.
Description
CVE-2026-25584 is a high-severity stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the InternationalColorConsortium's iccDEV library versions prior to 2.3.1.3. It occurs in the CIccTagFloatNum<>::GetValues() function when processing specially crafted ICC color profiles, allowing out-of-bounds writes on the stack. This can lead to memory corruption, potentially enabling information disclosure or arbitrary code execution. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction to process a malicious ICC file, but no privileges are needed. The vulnerability has been patched in version 2.3.1.
