Assigned CVE-2019-7635 by MITRE.

The root cause is that the POC BMP file declares 3 colors used and 4 bpp palette, but pixel at line 28 and column 1 (counted from 0) has color number 3. Then when the image loaded into a surface is passed to SDL_DisplayFormat(), in order to convert it to a video format, a used bliting function looks up a color number 3 in a 3-element long color bliting map. (The map obviously has the same number entries as the surface format has colors.)

Proper fix should refuse broken BMP images that have a pixel with a color index higher than declared number of "used" colors. Possibly more advanced fix could try to relocate the out-of-range color index into a vacant index (if such exists).

Fix for 1-, 4-, 8-bpp images

On 2019-02-21 09:48:26 +0000, Petr Pisar wrote:

By the way the BMP decoder assumes a less than 8 bit depth images have 1 or 4 bits per pixel. No other depths are correctly translated to an 8bpp surface. However, BMP specification does not forbid other depths like 2 or 3 bits per pixel.

Based on reading the code, I believe pretty strange things can happen when displaying these images. My fix only deals with 1-, 4- and 8-bpp images because the decoder does not provide an easy access to pixel values for other bpp images.

I believe it should be safer to reject the other-bpp completely.

This implements the rejection for strange-bpp images.

Maybe I don't understand hg enough, but it seems to me that these two commits are identical and contain the "Reject 2, 3, 5, 6, 7-bpp BMP images" fix.

SDL-1.2 branch is still missing the "Fix for 1-, 4-, 8-bpp images" fix.

The macro BI_RGB has not been defined any where in the source code.

The line define BI_BITFIELDS as 3:

Due to recent fixes in the following file reference:
https://github.com/spurious/SDL-mirror/blob/a88f1d07249cbe05e4d3fbd5e3b7b7269e4580c1/src/video/SDL_bmp.c#L212

a switch case statement was added with the value 3, which results in compilation failure due to duplicate case value.

Let me know in-case more information is needed.

Ameya

Note: Sorry for the external reference, since in my current development environment I do not have access to mercurial.

The two commits are not identical in the end.

08f3b4992538 is the correct fix identical to here proposed "Reject 2, 3, 5, 6, 7-bpp BMP images".

4646533663ae is a patch unknown to me that breaks the compilation. The 4646533663ae commit should be reverted. It does not make sense at all.

Tagging a bunch of bugs with "target-2.0.10" so we have a clear list of things to address before a 2.0.10 release.

Please note that "addressing" one of these bugs might mean deciding to defer on it until after 2.0.10, or resolving it as WONTFIX, etc. This is just here to tell us we should look at it carefully, and soon.

If you have new information or feedback on this issue, this is a good time to add it to the conversation, as we're likely to be paying attention to this specific report in the next few days/weeks.

Thanks!
