An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes.

Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4863/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4863/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-4863","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4863/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-4863","record":{"aliases":["A-299477569","ALPINE-CVE-2023-4863","ALSA-2023:5184","ALSA-2023:5200","ALSA-2023:5201","ALSA-2023:5214","ALSA-2023:5224","ALSA-2023:5309","AZL-29758","CLEANSTART-2024-ZN11059","CLSA-2024-1717678054","CVE-2023-5129","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-4863","DLA-3568-1","DLA-3569-1","DLA-3570-1","DSA-5496-1","DSA-5497-1","DSA-5497-2","DSA-5498-1","GHSA-j7hp-h8jx-5ppr","JLSEC-2026-441","MGASA-2023-0282","OESA-2023-1681","OESA-2023-1713","OESA-2023-1714","PYSEC-2023-181","PYSEC-2023-182","PYSEC-2023-183","PYSEC-2023-184","RHSA-2023:5222","RLSA-2023:5184","RLSA-2023:5309","ROOT-APP-PYPI-CVE-2023-4863","SUSE-SU-2023:3609-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3610-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3626-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3634-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3794-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3829-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-4863","USN-6367-1","USN-6369-1","USN-6369-2","openSUSE-SU-2023:0246-1","openSUSE-SU-2023:0247-1","openSUSE-SU-2023:0278-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13227-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13228-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13229-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13231-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13255-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13265-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13266-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13271-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13284-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13338-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13353-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13595-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:10991-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:12010-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:12177-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"libwebp image library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via crafted HTML pages exploiting a heap buffer overflow in the libwebp library.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Chrome","cpe":[{"product":"honeyview","vendor":"bandisoft"},{"product":"seequent_leapfrog","vendor":"bentley"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"chrome","vendor":"google"},{"product":"edge_chromium","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"teams","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"webp_image_extension","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"thunderbird","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"active_iq_unified_manager","vendor":"netapp"},{"product":"libwebp","vendor":"webmproject"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"Heap buffer overflow in libwebp in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.187 and libwebp 1.3.2 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory write via a crafted HTML page.
