Exploitability

CWE

KEV

CWE ID	Description
CWE-190	The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
CWE-189

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an integer overflow issue in the embedded-graphics library up to version 0.8.2. It occurs in the ImageRaw::draw_sub_image function due to improper handling of the width argument, which can be manipulated remotely to trigger the overflow.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to cause unexpected behavior in applications using the affected library, potentially leading to crashes, data corruption, or other unintended consequences. The remote attack vector increases the risk of exploitation.

Mitigation Strategies

Update embedded-graphics to a version beyond 0.8.2 where the vulnerability is patched. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to systems using this library or monitor for unusual activity related to image processing functions.
