CVE-2025-27363 created at 19 May 2025 23:20:57
Severity
+ High
Remote
+ Remote
Type
+ Arbitrary code execution
Description
+ An out of bounds write exists in FreeType versions 2.13.0 and below
+ when attempting to parse font subglyph structures related to TrueType
+ GX and variable font files. The vulnerable code assigns a signed short
+ value to an unsigned long and then adds a static value causing it to
+ wrap around and allocate too small of a heap buffer. The code then
+ writes up to 6 signed long integers out of bounds relative to this
+ buffer. This may result in arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability
+ may have been exploited in the wild.
