Focus on color vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2026, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with color. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total color CVEs: 8
Earliest CVE date: 21 Jun 2012, 15:55 UTC
Latest CVE date: 25 Feb 2026, 15:20 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2026-27692
30-day Count (Rolling): 2
365-day Count (Rolling): 2
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 1.61
Max CVSS: 9.3
Critical CVEs (≥9): 1
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 8 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 1 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 0 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 1 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for color, sorted by severity first and recency.
iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools for working with ICC color management profiles. In versions up to and including 2.3.1.4, heap-buffer-overflow read occurs during CIccTagTextDescription::Release() when strlen() reads past a heap buffer while parsing ICC profile XML text description tags, causing a crash. Commit 29d088840b962a7cdd35993dfabc2cb35a049847 fixes the issue. No known workarounds are available.
iccDEV provides a set of libraries and tools for working with ICC color management profiles. In versions up to and including 2.3.1.4, signed integer overflow in iccFromCube.cpp during multiplication triggers undefined behavior, potentially causing crashes or incorrect ICC profile generation when processing crafted/large cube inputs. Commit 43ae18dd69fc70190d3632a18a3af2f3da1e052a fixes the issue. No known workarounds are available.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 3e7948b, CIccCLUT::Interp2d in IccTagLut.cpp in libSampleICC.a has an out-of-bounds read.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 79ecb74, a CIccXmlArrayType:::ParseText function (for unsigned short) in IccUtilXml.cpp in libIccXML.a has an out-of-bounds read.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 79ecb74, CIccXformMatrixTRC::GetCurve in IccCmm.cpp in libSampleICC.a has a NULL pointer dereference.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 79ecb74, CIccCLUT::Interp3d in IccProfLib/IccTagLut.cpp in libSampleICC.a attempts to access array elements at out-of-bounds indexes.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 79ecb74, there is an out-of-bounds read in the CIccPRMG::GetChroma function in IccProfLib/IccPrmg.cpp in libSampleICC.a.
In International Color Consortium DemoIccMAX 79ecb74, there is a stack-based buffer overflow in the icFixXml function in IccXML/IccLibXML/IccUtilXml.cpp in libIccXML.a.
Multiple integer underflows in the icmLut_allocate function in International Color Consortium (ICC) Format library (icclib), as used in Ghostscript 9.06 and Argyll Color Management System, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) PostScript or (2) PDF file with embedded images, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: this issue is also described as an array index error.
Use-after-free vulnerability in icclib before 2.13, as used by Argyll CMS before 1.4 and possibly other programs, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted ICC profile file.
