Vulnerability Spotlight: Buffer overflow vulnerability in ADMesh library

Summary: Cisco Talos's Francesco Benvenuto discovered an improper array index validation vulnerability, tracked as TALOS-2022-1594 (CVE-2022-38072), in the ADMesh C library used to process 3-D triangular meshes. A specially crafted STL file can trigger a heap buffer overflow, and Talos confirmed that ADMesh Master Commit 767a105, Slic3r libslic3r Master Commit b1a5500 and ADMesh v0.98.4 could be exploited.
Bottom line: The attack path is a file, not a network service: anyone who can get a malicious STL in front of a mesh-processing pipeline triggers the heap overflow, and Talos confirmed three specific builds were exploitable before the fix.
