An issue was discovered in CImg v.220. DoS occurs when loading a crafted bmp image that triggers an allocation failure in load_bmp in CImg.h.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
