Summary

iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools for working with ICC color management profiles. Prior to version 2.3.1.6, a crafted ICC profile can trigger a heap-buffer-overflow (HBO) in icMemDump() when iccDumpProfile attempts to dump/describe malformed tag contents. The issue is observable under AddressSanitizer as an out-of-bounds heap read in icMemDump(...) at IccProfLib/IccUtil.cpp:1002, reachable via CIccTagUnknown::Describe(). This issue has been patched in version 2.3.1.6.

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
