Summary

SumatraPDF up to and including 3.7.0.22298 is affected. Incomplete range checks in the LIT parser in src/LitDoc.cpp let file-controlled offsets and sizes overflow, narrow or wrap, causing out-of-bounds reads (CWE-125). An attacker who gets a user to open a crafted LIT file can cause invalid pointer reads and terminate the application.

Description from the CNA

SumatraPDF is a multi-format reader for Windows. In 3.7.0.22298, four independently reachable range-validation variants in src/LitDoc.cpp allow file-controlled offsets and sizes to overflow, narrow to negative values, or wrap before incomplete bounds checks. The affected calculations include contentOffset, the directory expression dirOff64 + dirLen64, and the decoded-section offset + size, along with secondary-header range handling. Opening a crafted LIT file that reaches one of these variants can cause invalid pointer reads and deterministic application termination. No broader impact is claimed beyond the advisory-supported conditions. No fixed version is available as of this review.
