CVE-2018-11739

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Sleuth Kit versions 4.0.2 through 4.6.1

Description An issue was discovered in the function raw read in tsk/img/raw.c, which could allow an attacker to disclose information or cause a denial of service attack by manipulating an out-of-bounds read of a memory region.

Recommendations For versions 4.0.2 through 4.6.1, consider restricting access to the raw read function in tsk/img/raw.c until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the raw read function to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
