GDCM <= 3.2.7: six memory-safety and denial-of-service vulnerabilities, no CVE

Six memory-safety and denial-of-service flaws disclosed in the GDCM DICOM parsing library, affecting versions through 3.2.7.

Researcher Abhinav Agarwal disclosed six vulnerabilities in GDCM (Grassroots DICOM), an open-source C++ library for parsing and processing DICOM files. All six were confirmed against GDCM 3.2.6 using AddressSanitizer and UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer, and source review found the vulnerable patterns through version 3.2.7 and the upstream master snapshot. Potential impacts include heap corruption, process-memory disclosure, stack exhaustion, and process termination in applications parsing untrusted DICOM files. No CVE identifiers have been assigned at the time of disclosure.

Memory-safety defects in the upstream (abandoned) AOSP OpenCORE AAC decoder, shipped unpatched by Samsung TizenRT

Abandoned AOSP OpenCORE AAC decoder has out-of-bounds-write and wild-pointer flaws reachable from attacker-controlled frames, unpatched in Samsung TizenRT.

The OpenCORE AAC decoder in AOSP's abandoned external/opencore tree contains memory-safety defects of the out-of-bounds-write and wild-pointer class. The code is still vendored and built by multiple projects, most notably Samsung's widely deployed TizenRT embedded RTOS. The defects are reachable from untrusted media because an AAC frame is attacker-controlled. The researcher is requesting a CVE ID for the issue.
