Low
1.9/10

Summary

A vulnerability was identified in the Open Asset Import Library Assimp. Affected by this vulnerability is the function "ODDLParser::getNextSeparator" in the library "assimp/contrib/openddlparser/include/openddlparser/OpenDDLParserUtils.h". Such manipulation leads to a Heap-based Buffer Overflow. The attack must be carried out locally. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. This issue affects assimp versions 3.2 and after.

CWE-119 - Buffer Overflow

Buffer overflow attacks involve data transit and operations exceeding the restricted memory buffer, thereby corrupting or overwriting data in adjacent memory locations. Such overflow allows the attacker to run arbitrary code or manipulate the existing code to cause privilege escalation, data breach, denial of service, system crash and even complete system compromise. Given that languages such as C and C++ lack default safeguards against overwriting or accessing data in their memory, applications utilizing these languages are most susceptible to buffer overflows attacks.
