Summary
radare2 before version 6.2.0 has a vulnerability in the Mach-O LC_DATA_IN_CODE parser that trusts dataoff and datasize, potentially leading to a heap out-of-bounds read when processing a crafted file. The attack requires the bin.verbose option to be enabled. It may cause process termination, but no memory disclosure has been demonstrated.
Risk Assessment
The risk includes potential application crashes during analysis of malicious files, which could disrupt security tools.
Recommendation
Update radare2 to version 6.2.0 or later, which includes the fix.
Other vulnerabilities in radare2
See all- CVE-2026-8696High
Version 6.1.5 of radare2 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the gdbr_pids_list() function, which can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code by sending malformed thread information responses.
- CVE-2026-8695High
radare2 version 6.1.5 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the gdbr_threads_list() function. This allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption by sending a valid qfThreadInfo response followed by a malformed qsThreadInfo response.
- CVE-2026-40499High
radare2 prior to version 6.1.4 contains a command injection vulnerability in the PDB parser's print_gvars() function that allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by embedding a newline byte in the PE section header name field. Attackers can craft a malicious PDB file with specially crafted section names to inject r2 commands that are executed when the idp command processes the file.
- CVE-2017-15932High
In radare2 version 2.0.1, an integer exception (negative number leading to an invalid memory access) exists in store_versioninfo_gnu_verdef() in elf.c, which can be triggered by crafted ELF files when parsing the ELF version on 32-bit systems.
- CVE-2017-15931High
In radare2 version 2.0.1, an integer exception (negative number leading to an invalid memory access) exists in store_versioninfo_gnu_verneed() in elf.c, which can be exploited via crafted ELF files on 32-bit systems.
- CVE-2017-15385High
The store_versioninfo_gnu_verdef function in radare2 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted ELF file, leading to an invalid write in r_read_le16 and application crash.
- CVE-2017-15368High
The wasm_dis function in radare2 version 2.0.0 allows remote attackers to cause denial of service through stack-based buffer over-read, leading to application crash. The attack can be executed using a crafted WASM file that triggers an incorrect r_hex_bin2str call.
- CVE-2017-10929High
The grub_memmove function in radare2 1.5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) via a crafted binary file.
- CVE-2017-9949High
The grub_memmove function in radare2 1.5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted binary file, potentially leading to application crashes due to a buffer underflow.
- CVE-2017-6448High
The dalvik_disassemble function in radare2 version 1.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted DEX file.
Original NVD description (English source)
radare2 is a UNIX-like reverse engineering framework and command-line toolset. Prior to 6.2.0, radare2's Mach-O LC_DATA_IN_CODE parser was vulnerable because the Mach-O LC_DATA_IN_CODE parser trusted dataoff and datasize and allowed a final partial record to be processed. The vulnerability is triggered by opening a crafted Mach-O file while the non-default bin.verbose option is enabled. When datasize was not a multiple of data_in_code_entry, the last iteration read beyond the allocated buffer. This can cause a heap out-of-bounds read and possible process termination; no attacker-observable memory disclosure has been demonstrated. This issue is fixed in version 6.2.0.
