{"id":"JLSEC-2026-1315","summary":"Exiv2 has quadratic performance in ICC profile parsing in `JpegBase::readMetadata`","details":"### Impact\n\nA denial-of-service was found in Exiv2 version v0.28.5: a quadratic algorithm in the ICC profile parsing code in `jpegBase::readMetadata()` can cause Exiv2 to run for a long time. Exiv2 is a command-line utility and C++ library for reading, writing, deleting, and modifying the metadata of image files. The denial-of-service is triggered when Exiv2 is used to read the metadata of a crafted jpg image file.\n\n### Patches\n\nThe bug is fixed in version v0.28.6.\n\n### References\n\nIssue: https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/issues/3333\nFixes: https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/pull/3335 (main branch), https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/pull/3345 (0.28.x branch)\n\n### For more information\n\nPlease see our [security policy](https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/security/policy) for information about Exiv2 security.","modified":"2026-08-13T16:14:04.474707326Z","published":"2026-08-13T15:55:58.236Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-55304","EUVD-2025-26206","GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g","PYSEC-2026-1355"],"database_specific":{"license":"CC-BY-4.0","sources":[{"id":"CVE-2025-55304","imported":"2026-08-12T14:19:47.137Z","modified":"2026-06-17T09:41:37.083Z","published":"2025-08-29T15:15:35.950Z","url":"https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cves/2.0?cveId=CVE-2025-55304","html_url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-55304","database_specific":{"status":"Analyzed"}},{"imported":"2026-08-12T14:19:52.333Z","modified":"2025-08-29T21:04:02Z","published":"2025-08-29T14:59:37Z","url":"https://api.github.com/advisories/GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g","html_url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g","id":"GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g"},{"imported":"2026-08-12T14:19:48.704Z","modified":"2025-08-29T15:27:17Z","published":"2025-08-29T15:00:05Z","url":"https://euvdservices.enisa.europa.eu/api/enisaid?id=EUVD-2025-26206","html_url":"https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/vulnerability/EUVD-2025-26206","id":"EUVD-2025-26206"}]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/issues/3333"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/pull/3335"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/pull/3345"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/security/advisories/GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-m54q-mm9w-fp6g"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-55304"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"Exiv2_jll","ecosystem":"Julia","purl":"pkg:julia/Exiv2_jll?uuid=d2dc9c37-b624-5257-85b1-2eb67ce3a11b"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/JuliaLang/SecurityAdvisories.jl/tree/generated/osv/2026/JLSEC-2026-1315.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X"}],"credits":[{"name":"gluck-pwn","contact":["https://github.com/gluck-pwn"],"type":"FINDER"}]}
