What is CVE-2025-32468?

CVE-2025-32468 is a high-severity vulnerability in SAIL Image Decoding Library, published on 25 Aug 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

A memory corruption vulnerability exists in the BMPv3 Image Decoding functionality of the SAIL Image Decoding Library v0.9.8. When loading a specially crafted .bmp file, an integer overflow can be made to occur when calculating the stride for decoding. Afterwards, this will cause a heap-based buffer to overflow when decoding the image which can lead to remote code execution. An attacker will need to convince the library to read a file to trigger this vulnerability.
