commonmarker 0.17.12
Integer overflow in cmark-gfm table parsing extension leads to heap memory corruption
high severity GHSA-fmx4-26r3-wxpf>= 0.23.4
Impact
CommonMarker uses cmark-gfm for rendering Github Flavored Markdown.
An integer overflow in cmark-gfm's table row parsing
may lead to heap memory corruption when parsing tables who's marker rows contain more than UINT16_MAX
columns. The impact of this heap corruption ranges from Information Leak to Arbitrary Code Execution.
If affected versions of CommonMarker are used for rendering remote user controlled markdown, this vulnerability may lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE).
Patches
This vulnerability has been patched in the following CommonMarker release:
- v0.23.4
Workarounds
The vulnerability exists in the table markdown extensions of cmark-gfm. Disabling any use of the
table extension will prevent this vulnerability from being triggered.
Commonmarker vulnerable to to several quadratic complexity bugs that may lead to denial of service
high severity GHSA-48wp-p9qv-4j64>= 0.23.9
Impact
Several quadratic complexity bugs in commonmarker's underlying cmark-gfm library may lead to unbounded resource exhaustion and subsequent denial of service.
The following vulnerabilities were addressed:
- CVE-2023-24824
- CVE-2023-26485
For more information, consult the release notes for versions 0.23.0.gfm.10 and 0.23.0.gfm.11.
Mitigation
Users are advised to upgrade to commonmarker version 0.23.9
