CVE-2018-19497debiansleuthkit+4
EPSS score1.52%
In The Sleuth Kit (TSK) through 4.6.4, hfs_cat_traverse in tsk/fs/hfs.c does not properly determine when a key length is too large, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (SEGV on unknown address with READ memory access in a tsk_getu16 call in hfs_dir_open_meta_cb in tsk/fs/hfs_dent.c).CVE-2018-11738debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score1.30%
An issue was discovered in libtskfs.a in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) from release 4.0.2 through to 4.6.1. An out-of-bounds read of a memory region was found in the function ntfs_make_data_run in tsk/fs/ntfs.c which could be leveraged by an attacker to disclose information or manipulated to read from unmapped memory causing a denial of service attack.CVE-2018-11740debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score1.28%
An issue was discovered in libtskbase.a in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) from release 4.0.2 through to 4.6.1. An out-of-bounds read of a memory region was found in the function tsk_UTF16toUTF8 in tsk/base/tsk_unicode.c which could be leveraged by an attacker to disclose information or manipulated to read from unmapped memory causing a denial of service attack.CVE-2018-11737debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score1.30%
An issue was discovered in libtskfs.a in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) from release 4.0.2 through to 4.6.1. An out-of-bounds read of a memory region was found in the function ntfs_fix_idxrec in tsk/fs/ntfs_dent.cpp which could be leveraged by an attacker to disclose information or manipulated to read from unmapped memory causing a denial of service.CVE-2018-11739debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score1.28%
An issue was discovered in libtskimg.a in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) from release 4.0.2 through to 4.6.1. An out-of-bounds read of a memory region was found in the function raw_read in tsk/img/raw.c which could be leveraged by an attacker to disclose information or manipulated to read from unmapped memory causing a denial of service attack.CVE-2020-10232debiansleuthkit+5EPSS score2.48%
In version 4.8.0 and earlier of The Sleuth Kit (TSK), there is a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in the YAFFS file timestamp parsing logic in yaffsfs_istat() in fs/yaffs.c.CVE-2020-10233debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score2.70%
In version 4.8.0 and earlier of The Sleuth Kit (TSK), there is a heap-based buffer over-read in ntfs_dinode_lookup in fs/ntfs.c.CVE-2022-45639sleuthkitthe_sleuth_kitEPSS score4.66%
OS Command injection vulnerability in sleuthkit fls tool 4.11.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted value to the m parameter. NOTE: third parties have disputed this because there is no analysis showing that the backtick command executes outside the context of the user account that entered the command line.CVE-2012-5619debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score0.35%
The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.0.1 does not properly handle "." (dotfile) file system entries in FAT file systems and other file systems for which . is not a reserved name, which allows local users to hide activities it more difficult to conduct forensics activities, as demonstrated by Flame.CVE-2017-13755debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.74%
In The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.4.2, opening a crafted ISO 9660 image triggers an out-of-bounds read in iso9660_proc_dir() in tsk/fs/iso9660_dent.c in libtskfs.a, as demonstrated by fls.CVE-2017-13756debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.70%
In The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.4.2, opening a crafted disk image triggers infinite recursion in dos_load_ext_table() in tsk/vs/dos.c in libtskvs.a, as demonstrated by mmls.CVE-2017-13760debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.74%
In The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.4.2, fls hangs on a corrupt exfat image in tsk_img_read() in tsk/img/img_io.c in libtskimg.a.CVE-2019-14531debiansleuthkit+2EPSS score2.02%
An issue was discovered in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.6.6. There is an out of bounds read on iso9660 while parsing System Use Sharing Protocol data in fs/iso9660.c.CVE-2019-14532debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score2.04%
An issue was discovered in The Sleuth Kit (TSK) 4.6.6. There is an off-by-one overwrite due to an underflow on tools/hashtools/hfind.cpp while using a bogus hash table.CVE-2019-1010065debiansleuthkit+5EPSS score1.37%
The Sleuth Kit 4.6.0 and earlier is affected by: Integer Overflow. The impact is: Opening crafted disk image triggers crash in tsk/fs/hfs_dent.c:237. The component is: Overflow in fls tool used on HFS image. Bug is in tsk/fs/hfs.c file in function hfs_cat_traverse() in lines: 952, 1062. The attack vector is: Victim must open a crafted HFS filesystem image.CVE-2026-40026debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.18%
The Sleuth Kit through 4.14.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the ISO9660 filesystem parser where the parse_susp() function trusts len_id, len_des, and len_src fields from the disk image to memcpy data into a stack buffer without verifying that the source data falls within the parsed SUSP block. An attacker can craft a malicious ISO image that causes reads past the end of the SUSP data buffer, and a zero-length SUSP entry can trigger an infinite parsing loop.CVE-2026-40024debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.21%
The Sleuth Kit through 4.14.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in tsk_recover that allows an attacker to write files to arbitrary locations outside the intended recovery directory via crafted filenames or directory paths with path traversal sequences in a filesystem image. An attacker can craft a malicious filesystem image with embedded /../ sequences in filenames that, when processed by tsk_recover, writes files outside the output directory, potentially achieving code execution by overwriting shell configuration or cron entries.CVE-2026-40025debiansleuthkit+3EPSS score0.18%
The Sleuth Kit through 4.14.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the APFS filesystem keybag parser where the wrapped_key_parser class follows attacker-controlled length fields without bounds checking, causing heap reads past the allocated buffer. An attacker can craft a malicious APFS disk image that triggers information disclosure or crashes when processed by any Sleuth Kit tool that parses APFS volumes.
