Summary

Blender before 4.5.15 and 5.x before 5.2.3 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability caused by integer overflow in ptcache_data_alloc() when reading point cache files. Attackers can supply a crafted point cache file with a large totpoint value alongside a .blend file to crash Blender or execute code as the user.

Risk Assessment

Opening a malicious .blend file with an accompanying point cache file can lead to a crash or code execution in the user's context. This poses a threat to users opening unknown files.

Recommendation

Update Blender to version 4.5.15 or 5.2.3 (or later). Avoid opening .blend files and associated point cache files from untrusted sources.
