LIEF commit 365a16a was discovered to contain a heap-buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2022-38495) in the printbinary function within machoreader.c. The vulnerability was identified on August 10, 2022, affecting the LIEF project's handling of Mach-O binary files (GitHub Issue).
The vulnerability is a heap-buffer-overflow that occurs in the printbinary function at line 39 of machoreader.c. The issue manifests when reading 1 byte beyond the allocated memory region at address 0x602000000152, specifically 1 byte to the right of a 1-byte region [0x602000000150,0x602000000151). The overflow is triggered during the processing of Mach-O binary files when handling load commands (GitHub Issue).
When exploited, this vulnerability could lead to memory corruption and potentially cause the application to crash. The issue occurs during the processing of Mach-O binary files, which could affect systems that use LIEF for binary analysis and manipulation.
The vulnerability was identified in LIEF commit 365a16a. Users should update to a patched version of LIEF that addresses this heap buffer overflow issue.
