Echo: libheif: security update to 1.19.8-1+e9

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461458

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. From 1.19.0 until 1.23.3, a crafted image item
containing a clap property and an ispe width or height greater than INT32_MAX + 1 can reach crop
calculations through heif_image_handle_get_image_tiling(). Box_clap::left_rounded() or
Box_clap::top_rounded() passes the image dimension minus one to Fraction::Fraction(), whose uint32_t
constructor uses an assertion as input validation, causing assert-enabled builds to abort. Release builds
can instead compute invalid crop geometry, and the tiling API returns dimensions that the normal decode
security limits reject. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.3. (CVE-2026-84450)

Solution

Update the libheif library and its related packages to version 1.19.8-1+e9 or later.
