Description SMASH SMASH 2023-09-26 09:22:41 UTC
With a specially crafted WebP lossless file, libwebp may write data out of
bounds to the heap.

The ReadHuffmanCodes() function allocates the HuffmanCode buffer with a size
that comes from an array of precomputed sizes: kTableSize. The color_cache_bits
value defines which size to use.

The kTableSize array only takes into account sizes for 8-bit first-level table
lookups but not second-level table lookups. libwebp allows codes that are up to
15-bit (MAX_ALLOWED_CODE_LENGTH). When BuildHuffmanTable() attempts to fill the
second-level tables it may write data out-of-bounds. The OOB write to the
undersized array happens in ReplicateValue.
