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

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 463095

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. In 1.23.0 and earlier, a crafted HEIF or AVIF
 file containing a clean aperture box can reduce an image dimension to zero and crash or corrupt tiling
 results when heif_image_handle_get_image_tiling(handle, 1, &tiling) is called.
 ImageItem::get_heif_image_tiling() returns already transformed dimensions, and
 process_image_transformations_on_tiling() applies the clean aperture transformation again. The second
 application passes zero to Box_clap::left_rounded(0), where image_width minus one underflows and
 constructs Fraction(0xFFFFFFFF, 2). Debug builds reach an assertion and abort, while release builds can
 return a corrupt crop and zero-width tiling result. The affected implementation spans libheif/image-
 items/image_item.cc, libheif/context.cc, and libheif/box.cc. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.1.
 (CVE-2026-62289)

Solution

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