CVE-2022-4988

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Alien::FreeImage; # This is a generic PoC structure demonstrating the usage. # Actual exploitation requires a crafted image file triggering CVE-2015-0852. my $malicious_file = 'exploit.bmp'; # Simulate loading the malicious image using the vulnerable library # In a real scenario, the underlying C library would crash or execute code # when parsing the specific malformed bytes in 'exploit.bmp'. print "Attempting to load $malicious_file using Alien::FreeImage...\n"; # Note: The specific function call to trigger the vulnerability depends on # how the application utilizes the library (e.g., loading a bitmap). # The vulnerability lies within the loaded shared object/static library. # Example usage (pseudo-code as specific API call varies by wrapper): # my $dib = FreeImage_Load($malicious_file);
