CVE-2026-84449

LOW CVSS 3.1: 3.7 EPSS 0.43%
Updated Sep 22, 2026
libheif
Parameter Value
CVSS 3.7 (LOW)
Fixed In 1.19.6
Type CWE-125 (Out-of-bounds Read), CWE-190 (Integer Overflow)
Vendor libheif
Public PoC No

libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. Prior to 1.19.6, Op_RGB24_32_to_YCbCr::convert_colorspace() stores image-plane strides in an integer width that can overflow for extremely large RGB images created through heif_image_create() and heif_image_add_plane(). The resulting wrapped stride causes the conversion loop in libheif/color-conversion/rgb2yuv.cc to compute an invalid input pointer and read beyond the allocated interleaved plane while heif_context_encode_image() performs RGB-to-YCbCr conversion.

This can crash the encoding process. This issue is fixed in version 1.19.6.
