CVE-2026-5444

HIGH CVSS: 7.1 Published: 2026-04-09 Modified: 2026-06-17

Description

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the PAM image parsing logic. When Orthanc processes a crafted PAM image embedded in a DICOM file, image dimensions are multiplied using 32-bit unsigned arithmetic. Specially chosen values can cause an integer overflow during buffer size calculation, resulting in the allocation of a small buffer followed by a much larger write operation during pixel processing.

Affected Platforms

Orthanc-Server Orthanc

Weakness Type

CWE-787
