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

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459391

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 1.23.1, a crafted
uncompressed HEIF image using generic zlib unci full-item compression can crash an application that
decodes an advertised tile with heif_image_handle_decode_image_tile(). In
libheif/codecs/uncompressed/unc_decoder.cc, unc_decoder::fetch_tile_data() computes a large tile offset
and unc_decoder::get_compressed_image_data_uncompressed() validates it with range_start_offset plus
range_size. For the last advertised tile (4095, 4095), the addition can wrap to zero, bypass the bounds
check, and pass an invalid source pointer and a one-terabyte length to memcpy. The observed result is an
out-of-bounds read and process crash; opening the file alone does not trigger the issue because tile
decoding is required. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.1. (CVE-2026-62292)

Solution

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