CVE-2023-33106: Use of Out-of-range Pointer Offset in Graphics

Noroxi assessment

Priority: This week (action score 61/100)

  • CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Dec 5, 2023). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Dec 26, 2023.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.78% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 56.4% of all records.
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.

Actively exploited in the wild

CISA added this to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on Dec 5, 2023. That signals real attacks, not theory.

Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Dec 26, 2023.
