[HIGH] Vulnerability Spotlight: Three vulnerabilities in HDF5 file format could lead to remote code execution
## Vulnerability Spotlight: Three vulnerabilities in HDF5 file format could lead to remote code execution
Dave McDaniel of Cisco Talos discovered these vulnerabilities.
Cisco Talos recently discovered three vulnerabilities in a library that works with the HDF5 file format that could allow an attacker to execute remote code on a targeted device.
These issues arise in the libhdf5 gif2h5 tool that’s normally used to convert a GIF file to the HDF5 format, commonly used to store large amounts of numerical data. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted, malicious file. TALOS-2022-1485 (CVE-2022-25972) and TALOS-2022-1486 (CVE-2022-25942) are out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities in the gif2h5 tool that trigger a specific crash, opening
