Heap-based Buffer Over-read in jhead Affects GPS Information Processing

CVE-2020-6625

What is CVE-2020-6625?

A heap-based buffer over-read vulnerability exists in jhead up to version 3.04 when processing GPS information. This issue arises from the improper handling of memory in the Get32s function, which can potentially expose sensitive data beyond the intended buffer limits. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to read memory locations that may contain private information, emphasizing the need for secure coding practices in handling GPS metadata.
