Description
The
loadIndex() function fails to verify if the element count in a serialized HNSW index is within the stored capacity used to allocate the heap buffer. An attacker can provide a crafted index file where the element count exceeds the stored capacity, leading to a heap buffer overflow. This occurs because the loader writes data beyond the allocated buffer, which can result in an application crash.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
