Description

An error within the "LibRaw::unpack()" function (src/libraw_cxx.cpp) in LibRaw versions prior to 0.18.7 can be exploited to trigger a NULL pointer dereference. A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way LibRaw processed images. An attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash applications using LibRaw by tricking them into processing crafted images.
