What to know

What it is
ImageSharp is a 2D graphics library. From 2.0.0 until 4.1.2, ExifReader.ReadValues64 trusts the 64-bit BigTIFF IFD entry count and iterates once per declared entry. When fewer than 20 bytes remain, ExifReader.ReadValue64 returns without advancing the stream or terminating the outer loop, so a small malformed BigTIFF c…
Affected
SixLabors.ImageSharp (nuget) >= 2.0.0, <= 4.1.1
Fix
Upgrade SixLabors.ImageSharp to 4.1.2 or later.

The flaws

  • CVE-2026-106116: ImageSharp: BigTIFF IFD count can keep a decoder thread in a non-progressing loop (CVSS 5.3 · EPSS 0%)
  • CVE-2026-106115: ImageSharp: TIFF CCITT T6 encoder writes beyond an undersized output buffer (CVSS 7.5 · EPSS 0%)
  • CVE-2026-106112: ImageSharp: ICC LUT16 output channel count can write beyond Vector4 (CVSS 7.5 · EPSS 0%)
  • CVE-2026-106110: ImageSharp: TIFF CCITT T4 encoder can write past its compressed output buffer (CVSS 7.5 · EPSS 0%)

The fix

Upgrade SixLabors.ImageSharp: 4.1.2 or later on your release line

Original description

ImageSharp is a 2D graphics library. From 2.0.0 until 4.1.2, ExifReader.ReadValues64 trusts the 64-bit BigTIFF IFD entry count and iterates once per declared entry. When fewer than 20 bytes remain, ExifReader.ReadValue64 returns without advancing the stream or terminating the outer loop, so a small malformed BigTIFF can keep one decoder thread executing for an attacker-controlled duration. This report does not claim worker-pool exhaustion. This issue is fixed in version 4.1.2.
