Summary

A vulnerability was found in Open Asset Import Library Assimp up to version 6.0.4 in the function Assimp::Exporter::ExportToBlob in file code/AssetLib/Ply/PlyLoader.cpp. Manipulation in PLY model handling leads to a double free. The attack can be initiated remotely, and the exploit has been publicly disclosed.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability could allow remote code execution or application crash in systems using the Assimp library to process PLY files. The publicly available exploit increases the risk of attack on systems handling 3D models.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Assimp library to a version newer than 6.0.4 once a patch is released. Until then, restrict processing of untrusted PLY files.
