CVE-2026-51807
Heap-based out-of-bounds write in j2k_precinct_subband::parse_packet_header() in OpenHTJ2K versions 0.18.3 and earlier (fixed in v0.18.4) caused by missing bounds validation before coding-pass lengths are written to j2k_codeblock::pass_length[128]. A crafted JPEG 2000 codestream containing malformed PPM packet headers can trigger a heap-based out-of-bounds write in j2k_precinct_subband::parse_packet_header() in source/core/coding/coding_units.cpp due to missing bounds validation for the j2k_codeblock::pass_length[128] array which can lead to heap corruption and process termination.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.67%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 50
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact80 %
AV:N/AC:L/PR:N permite acceso remoto sin privilegios (T1190). Fichero JPEG2000 malformado causa corrupción de memoria y terminación de proceso (DoS T1499.004); potencial ejecución de código aunque no explícito (T1059).
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
