CVE-2026-62250
Published:October 30, 2026
Updated:November 04, 2026
LibreDWG is a free C library to read and write DWG files. Prior to 0.14.8413, a crafted pre-R13 DWG can make "decode_preR13_entities()" in "src/decode.c" enter a nonterminating loop that allocates a new object each iteration. "decode_preR13" in "src/decode_r11.c" computes "size" from the raw file-controlled "entities_start" and "entities_end" header bounds; the callee clamps "end" to "dat->size" but never recalculates "size". At "end" of input, "bit_read_RC" and "bit_read_RS" stop advancing "dat->byte", the overflow guard fails because "end" equals "dat->size", and the no-advance check compares against "oldpos" saved before the loop instead of the previous iteration. This leaves repeated allocation of "dwg->object" entries until allocation fails or the process is OOM-killed, not merely a constant-memory CPU hang. The defect remains after the clamping and no-progress changes associated with the earlier issue 1131. Applications and tools calling "dwg_read_file()" on untrusted files, including "dwg2dxf", "dwgread" and "dwg2svg", can suffer denial of service when a user or automated pipeline opens a malformed file; no attacker credentials are required. This issue is fixed in repository nightly version 0.14.8413.
