imageproc: integer overflow in kernel size check leads to out-of-bounds read
A bounds verification of a slice storage of a 2-dimensional matrix's coefficients (a kernel) would compare the total size against the product of individual dimensions. This would erroneously cast *after* the multiplication and consequently fail to detect possible violations when overflow occurs.
Afterwards, the individual sizes were trusted to properly constrain coordinates within the matrix to indices valid for the underlying storage. With a crafted Kernel object, certain combinations of coordinates could then cause an out-of-bounds access in an unsafe function while fulfilling its documented preconditions. The kernel value could be passed to library functions that trusted the preconditions and then performed such reads.
This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity none, availability low.
