The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dla-3934 advisory.

    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------     Debian LTS Advisory DLA-3934-1                debian-lts@lists.debian.org     https://www.debian.org/lts/security/                           Chris Lamb     October 22, 2024                              https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

    Package        : libheif     Version        : 1.11.0-1+deb11u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2024-41311

    It was discovered that there was a potential out-of-bounds read     vulnerability in libheif, a decoder and encoder for the HEIF and AVIF     image formats.

    Insufficient checks in ImageOverlay::parse() could have been     exploited by an overlay image with forged offsets which could, in     turn, have led to undefined behaviour.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     1.11.0-1+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libheif packages.

    Multiple security issues were found in libheif, a library to parse HEIF     and AVIF files, which could result in denial of service or potentially     the execution of arbitrary code.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 1.15.1-1+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libheif packages.

The remote Fedora 40 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-666aaa6a0d advisory.

    Latest upstream release. It adds support for tiles and fixes reading images generated by iOS 18+. See     https://github.com/strukturag/libheif/releases for more details about the changes since 1.17.6.

    **NOTE:** `heif-convert` tool was renamed to `heif-dec`.

    How to test:
    ==========

    Download and unzip sample images from [mastodon issue #31570](https://github.com/user-     attachments/files/16734152/HEIF-images.zip). Try opening them with e.g. `loupe` or `gimp`. They fail to     open with `libheif-1.17.6`, but should open successfully with `libheif-1.19.5`.

    Fixes [CVE-2024-41311](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-mwf7-wfvq-vc32) .

The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7082-1 advisory.

    Gerrard Tai discovered that libheif did not properly validate certain images, leading to out-of-bounds     read and write vulnerability. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted     file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or to obtain sensitive     information.
