CVE-2021-40418

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions R3D SDK (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue arises when the R3D SDK parses a file submitted to the DPDecoder service as a job. It mistakenly skips the assignment of a property containing an object that refers to a UUID parsed from a frame within the video container. Upon destruction of the object that owns it, the uninitialized member is dereferenced and then destroyed using the object's virtual destructor. This can result in dereferencing an arbitrary pointer for the object's virtual method table, potentially leading to code execution under the context of the application.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
