hdf5 v1.14.6 was discovered to contain a heap buffer overflow via the H5VMmemcpyvv function.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the SOHM list-index deserialization code in HDF5 through 2.1.1 on all platforms allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted HDF5 file whose shared-message list index declares a nummessages count exceeding listmax, triggering out-of-bounds heap reads and writes in H5SMcachelistdeserialize and H5SMcachelistverifychksum.
A double free vulnerability was discovered in the HDF5 library. Processing a crafted HDF5 file containing an oversized chunk size field via h5repack may cause the application to abort due to a double free.
hdf5 v1.14.6 was discovered to contain a heap buffer overflow via the H5Zfilterscaleoffset function.
A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in HDF5 up to 1.14.6. This vulnerability affects the function H5Faccumfree of the file src/H5Faccum.c. The manipulation of the argument overlapsize leads to heap-based buffer overflow. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in HDF5 up to 1.14.6. This affects the function H5FSsinfoSrializeSctcb of the file src/H5FScache.c. The manipulation of the argument sect leads to heap-based buffer overflow. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in HDF5 up to 1.14.6. This affects the function H5HLfldeserialize of the file src/H5HLcache.c. The manipulation of the argument freeblock leads to heap-based buffer overflow. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
HDF5 Library through 1.14.3 contains a heap-based buffer overflow in H5Tgetnativetype in H5Tnative.c resulting in the corruption of the instruction pointer.
HDF5 through 1.14.3 contains a heap buffer overflow in H5HGcacheheapdeserialize resulting in the corruption of the instruction pointer and causing denial of service or potential code execution.
HDF5 through 1.14.3 contains a stack buffer overflow in H5Rdecodeheap resulting in the corruption of the instruction pointer and causing denial of service or potential code execution.
HDF5 Library through 1.14.3 contains a heap-based buffer over-read in H5Faddrdecodelen in H5Fint.c resulting in the corruption of the instruction pointer.
HDF5 Library through 1.14.3 may use an uninitialized value in H5Aattrreleasetable in H5Aint.c.
HDF5 Library through 1.14.3 contains a heap-based buffer overflow in H5Tcopyreopen in H5T.c resulting in the corruption of the instruction pointer.
HDF5 Library through 1.14.3 has a heap buffer overflow in H5Omtimenewencode in H5Omtime.c.

HDF5 through 1.13.3 and/or 1.14.2 contains a stack buffer overflow in H5HGread resulting in denial of service or potential code execution.
Buffer underflow in H5Igetname /H5Ggetname if size is zero
Array full size, element count, and element size are not checked to make sure they match in H5Odtype.c
A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in HDF5 1.14.6. Affected is the function H5FLreggclist of the file src/H5FL.c. The manipulation leads to use after free. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
Untrusted pointer dereference in the renderbinoutput function in the h5dump tool in HDF5 before 2.3.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a variable-length string dataset with more than one element dumped in binary mode, which corrupts the per-element stride calculation and causes subsequent elements to be read from a misaligned offset and dereferenced as a pointer.
NULL pointer dereference in H5Pgetfillvalue in HDF5 before 2.3.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a dataset whose version 1 or 2 fill value message has the "defined" flag set together with a negative size field, which is not normalized to the library's "undefined" sentinel and reaches H5Tpathfind with a NULL datatype.
H5Zfilternbit in H5Znbit.c in HDF5 through 2.3.0 dereferences cdvalues[0] through cdvalues[4] without validating that cdvalues is non-NULL or that cdnelmts is at least 5, the fixed size of the filter's header. This allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted HDF5 file that stores the N-Bit filter pipeline message with zero client-data values, opened and read via H5Dread, e.g. by the h5ls or h5repack tools.
H5Olayoutdecode in H5Olayout.c in HDF5 through 2.3.0 does not validate that a chunked dataset's stored chunk-layout dimensionality matches its dataspace rank when an existing dataset is opened, whereas this check is performed only at dataset-creation time. This allows attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero and application crash in H5Shyperitergetseqlist in src/H5Shyper.c) via a crafted HDF5 file with mismatched chunk/dataspace ranks that is opened and read via H5Dopen2 and H5Dread, e.g. by the h5repack tool.
HDF5 is software for managing data. In 1.14.1-2 and earlier, a heap-use-after-free was found in the h5dump helper utility. An attacker who can supply a malicious h5 file can trigger a heap use-after-free. The freed object is referenced in a memmove call from H5Tconvstruct. The original object was allocated by H5Dtypeinfoinitphase3 and freed by H5Dtypeinfoterm.
HDF5 is software for managing data. Prior to version 1.14.4-2, an attacker who can control an h5 file parsed by HDF5 can trigger a write-based heap buffer overflow condition. This can lead to a denial-of-service condition, and potentially further issues such as remote code execution depending on the practical exploitability of the heap overflow against modern operating systems. Real-world exploitability of this issue in terms of remote-code execution is currently unknown. Version 1.14.4-2 fixes the issue.
