{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677","details":"stb_vorbis is a single file MIT licensed library for processing ogg vorbis files. A crafted file may trigger out of bounds write in `f-\u003evendor[len] = (char)'\\0';`. The root cause is that if `len` read in `start_decoder` is a negative number and `setup_malloc` successfully allocates memory in that case, but memory write is done with a negative index `len`. Similarly if len is INT_MAX the integer overflow len+1 happens in `f-\u003evendor = (char*)setup_malloc(f, sizeof(char) * (len+1));` and `f-\u003ecomment_list[i] = (char*)setup_malloc(f, sizeof(char) * (len+1));`. This issue may lead to code execution.","modified":"2026-05-20T16:13:53.039338581Z","published":"2023-10-21T00:15:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2023-45677"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2023-45677"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://securitylab.github.com/advisories/GHSL-2023-145_GHSL-2023-151_stb_image_h/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/pull/1555"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/5736b15f7ea0ffb08dd38af21067c314d6a3aae9/stb_vorbis.c#L3652-L3658"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/5736b15f7ea0ffb08dd38af21067c314d6a3aae9/stb_vorbis.c#L3658"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://securitylab.github.com/advisories/GHSL-2023-145_GHSL-2023-151_stb_image_h/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/5736b15f7ea0ffb08dd38af21067c314d6a3aae9/stb_vorbis.c#L3653"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/5736b15f7ea0ffb08dd38af21067c314d6a3aae9/stb_vorbis.c#L3670C7-L3670C75"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/5736b15f7ea0ffb08dd38af21067c314d6a3aae9/stb_vorbis.c#L950-L961"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-45677"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"libstb","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/libstb?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.0~git20190817.1.052dce1-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libstb0","binary_version":"0.0~git20190817.1.052dce1-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libstb","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/libstb?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.0~git20200713.b42009b+ds-1","0.0~git20210910.af1a5bc+ds-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libstb0","binary_version":"0.0~git20210910.af1a5bc+ds-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libstb","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/libstb?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.0~git20230129.5736b15+ds-1","0.0~git20230129.5736b15+ds-1.1","0.0~git20230129.5736b15+ds-1.2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"0.0~git20230129.5736b15+ds-1.2","binary_name":"libstb0t64"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libstb","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:25.10","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/libstb?arch=source&distro=questing"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.0~git20240715.f7f20f39fe4f+ds-1","0.0~git20241109.5c20573+ds-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libstb0t64","binary_version":"0.0~git20241109.5c20573+ds-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libstb","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/libstb?arch=source&distro=resolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.0~git20241109.5c20573+ds-1","0.0~git20250907.fede005+ds-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libstb0t64","binary_version":"0.0~git20250907.fede005+ds-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-45677.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
