It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-28162 exists.\n\nAffected product: Libpng Libpng. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. 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-2025-28162/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28162/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-28162","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28162/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-28162","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-28162","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-28162","ECHO-6086-bf4f-3673","GHSA-h77p-hrmm-5v85","JLSEC-2026-9","MINI-xjvg-w95w-m83j","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-28162","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-28162"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"libpng image library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can cause a denial of service in libpng by triggering memory leaks that lead to high memory usage and unresponsiveness.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"libpng","vendor":"libpng"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-120","name":"Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input"}],"description":"Buffer Overflow vulnerability in libpng 1.6.43-1.6.46 allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service via the pngimage with AddressSanitizer (ASan), the program leaks memory in various locations, eventually leading to high memory usage and causing the program to become unresponsive","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-28162","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"libpng:libpng","products":["libpng:libpng"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-28164"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-28146"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2026-01-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12652","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Out-of-bounds write in libpng","id":"CVE-2018-14550","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-10"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"LIBPNG has a heap buffer overflow in png_set_quantize","id":"CVE-2026-25646","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-10"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"LIBPNG has ARM NEON Palette Expansion Out-of-Bounds Read on AArch64","id":"CVE-2026-33636","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-26"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"LIBPNG has use-after-free via pointer aliasing in `png_set_tRNS` and `png_set_PLTE`","id":"CVE-2026-33416","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-26"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10087","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3464","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-07-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-01-29","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A local attacker can cause a denial of service in libpng by triggering memory leaks that lead to high memory usage and unresponsiveness.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-28162/"}
