MGASA-2024-0371 - Updated rapidjson packages fix security vulnerability

Publication date: 27 Nov 2024
URL: https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2024-0371.html
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases: 9
CVE: CVE-2024-38517

Description:
Tencent RapidJSON is vulnerable to privilege escalation due to an
integer underflow in the `GenericReader::ParseNumber()` function of
`include/rapidjson/reader.h` when parsing JSON text from a stream. An
attacker needs to send the victim a crafted file which needs to be
opened; this triggers the integer underflow vulnerability (when the file
is parsed), leading to elevation of privilege. (CVE-2024-38517)
