Description
A flaw was found in Tesseract. When loading a specially crafted trained model file, the engine fails to properly validate neural network configuration data, triggering an unhandled assertion failure instead of returning an error. A local attacker or application consumer could exploit this by supplying a malicious model file, causing the process to terminate unexpectedly and resulting in a denial of service (DoS).
