Crash via out-of-bounds projection parameter read
Published Feb 9, 2024 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Heap buffer overflow in Hugin 2022.0.0 allows attackers to crash pto_merge by processing a crafted PTO project file. HuginBase::PTools::setDestImage reads eight bytes beyond a three-double heap vector after malformed projection parameters select an unsupported projection. Execution requires a local user or workflow to open the attacker-supplied project; Debian records the outcome as a CLI crash without security impact.
