description
libheif versions before 1.23.2 can write beyond a heap buffer while adding tiles to uncompressed tiled images. An attacker or caller able to submit mismatched component-plane dimensions through the tile API may trigger the flaw when the uncompressed codec is enabled.
mitigation
Upgrade libheif to version 1.23.2 or later. Disable the uncompressed codec where it is not required until upgrades are complete.
fixed in 1.23.2
outcome
No artifact: an exploit or check was attempted but could not be produced at this moment.
