Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions stb image (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue is related to the stbi getn function in the stb image library, which reads a specified number of bytes from a context into a buffer. If the file stream points to the end, it returns zero. However, there are two places where its return value is not checked: in the stbi hdr load function and in the stbi tga load function. The latter is likely more exploitable as an attacker may also control the size of an uninitialized buffer.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
