{"cve":"CVE-2025-54080","nvd":{"published":"2025-08-29T15:15:35.613","modified":"2026-10-19T17:10:00.173","status":"Analyzed","description":"Exiv2 is a C++ library and a command-line utility to read, write, delete and modify Exif, IPTC, XMP and ICC image metadata. An out-of-bounds read was found in Exiv2 versions 0.28.5 and earlier. The out-of-bounds read is triggered when Exiv2 is used to write metadata into a crafted image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the vulnerability to cause a denial of service by crashing Exiv2, if they can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file. Note that this bug is only triggered when writing the metadata, which is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation than reading the metadata. The bug is fixed in version 0.28.6.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":1.8},"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-125"],"references":["https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/commit/e737332427711f15bcdc4e903203d6b7493eaec0","https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/security/advisories/GHSA-496f-x7cq-cq39"],"products":["exiv2:exiv2"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:07:46.309729541+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-54080","score":0.00143,"percentile":0.03568,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-496f-x7cq-cq39","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-496f-x7cq-cq39","summary":"Exiv2 Segmentation Faults in Exiv2::EpsImage::writeMetadata() via crafted EPS file","modified":"2026-07-07T17:57:02.553807900Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"exiv2","purl":"pkg:pypi/exiv2","ranges":["<=0.17.3"],"fixed":[]}]},{"id":"PYSEC-2026-1354","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/PYSEC-2026-1354","summary":"Exiv2 Segmentation Faults in Exiv2::EpsImage::writeMetadata() via crafted EPS file","modified":"2026-07-07T17:47:35.927454859Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"exiv2","purl":"pkg:pypi/exiv2","ranges":["<=0.17.3"],"fixed":[]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
