This vulnerability is an out-of-bounds read in the JPEGBITSCodec::InternalCode functionality of Grassroot DICOM 3.024. It occurs when a specially crafted DICOM file is processed, causing the function grayscale_convert to read memory outside the intended bounds based on the image pixel data interpretation specified by the malicious file. This can lead to an information leak.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing a malicious DICOM file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read and causes an information leak. This can result in unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
