Vulnerability Spotlight: Two vulnerabilities in Accusoft Image Gear could lead to DoS, arbitrary free

Summary: Cisco Talos discovered two vulnerabilities in Accusoft ImageGear, a document-imaging toolkit supporting more than 100 file formats including DICOM, PDF and Microsoft Office. TALOS-2022-1465 (CVE-2022-23400) can cause a denial-of-service condition by overflowing the stack buffer, with a possible one-byte memory leak in a very specific scenario, while TALOS-2022-1449 (CVE-2022-22137) can corrupt memory and cause an arbitrary use-after-free condition.

Key Takeaway: Accusoft patched these issues and also fixed several other Talos-disclosed vulnerabilities from February that previously had no patch, and Talos confirmed version 19.10 is affected - so any deployment still on that version carries both the DoS and use-after-free exposure until updated.
