Technical Analysis

This advisory covers multiple vulnerabilities in WebKitGTK affecting Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, including CVE-2025-13502 (out-of-bounds read and integer underflow causing denial of service), CVE-2025-43392 (cross-origin image data exfiltration), CVE-2025-13947 (remote user-assisted information disclosure via file drag-and-drop), and numerous others causing process crashes and memory corruption when processing malicious web content. The vulnerabilities span several CWE categories such as CWE-125 (out-of-bounds read), CWE-200 (information disclosure), CWE-119 and CWE-120 (memory corruption), CWE-416 (use after free), and CWE-20 (input validation). Red Hat has released updated webkit2gtk3 packages to address these issues.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may lead to denial of service through process crashes or memory corruption, and in some cases, remote user-assisted information disclosure or cross-origin data exfiltration. The CVSS vector for CVE-2025-13502 indicates a high severity denial of service vulnerability exploitable remotely without privileges or user interaction. The overall impact includes potential service disruption and leakage of sensitive image data across origins.

Mitigation Recommendations

Red Hat has released updated webkit2gtk3 packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 to address these vulnerabilities. Users should apply the security update as detailed in Red Hat advisory RHSA-2025:22789 and the referenced article https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258. No additional mitigations are indicated beyond applying the official patch. Patch status is confirmed as available from Red Hat.
