Original NVD Description

Source: NIST NVD
Multiple out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities were identified in a system component responsible for handling certain data buffers. Due to insufficient validation of maximum buffer size values, the process may attempt to read beyond the intended memory region. Under specific conditions, this can result in a crash of the affected process and a potential denial-of-service of the compromised process.
