imageproc: Out-of-bounds read via NaN coordinates in bilinear/bicubic sampling
Real-World Exposure
imageproc🦀imageproc🦀imageproc🦀imageprocReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
A bounds check was performed in floating points before a cast to the index passed to an unchecked access function. This checked considered NaN cases improperly, causing them to succeed the check instead of failing it. The floating point coordinate is under caller control by passing a selected projection matrix.
Carefully controlling the coordinates of an image with no data and one non-zero dimension provides an arbitrary read primitive in the first 32-bits of address space with a Bilinear sampling method.
Using bicubic sampling can result in a read of a few bytes beyond an allocation.
Other out-of-bounds reads may be possible.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for imageproc, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update imageproc to 0.23.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-qg8r-f7x3-25f7 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-qg8r-f7x3-25f7 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-qg8r-f7x3-25f7. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-qg8r-f7x3-25f7 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-qg8r-f7x3-25f7 across crates.io dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
