+## Image/Media Parsing Exploits (DNG/TIFF/JPEG)
+
+Malicious camera formats often ship their own bytecode (opcode lists, map tables, tone curves). When a privileged decoder fails to bound-check metadata-derived dimensions or plane indices, those opcodes become attacker-controlled read/write primitives that can groom the heap, pivot pointers, or even leak ASLR. Samsung's in-the-wild Quram exploit is a recent example of chaining a `DeltaPerColumn` bounds bug, heap spraying via skipped opcodes, vtable remapping, and a JOP chain to `system()`.

+## Delivery: Messaging Apps ➜ MediaStore ➜ Privileged Parsers
+
+Modern OEM builds regularly run privileged media indexers that rescan `MediaStore` for "AI" or sharing features. On Samsung firmware prior to the April 2025 patch, `com.samsung.ipservice` loads Quram (`/system/lib64/libimagecodec.quram.so`) and automatically parses any file WhatsApp (or other apps) drops into `MediaStore`. In practice an attacker can send a DNG disguised as `IMG-*.jpg`, wait for the victim to tap "download" (1-click), and the privileged service will parse the payload even if the user never opens the gallery.
+
+```bash
+$ file IMG-2025-02-10.jpeg
+TIFF image data ...
+$ exiftool IMG-2025-02-10.jpeg | grep "Opcode List"
+Opcode List 1 : [opcode 23], [opcode 23], ...
+```
+
+**Key takeaways**
+- Delivery relies on system media re-parsing (not the chat client) and thus inherits that process' permissions (full read/write access to the gallery, ability to drop new media, etc.).
+- Any image parser reachable through `MediaStore` (vision widgets, wallpapers, AI résumé features, etc.) becomes remotely reachable if the attacker can convince a target to save media.
+
+## Quram's DNG Opcode Interpreter Bugs
+
+DNG files embed three opcode lists applied at different decode stages. Quram copies Adobe's API, but its Stage-3 handler for `DeltaPerColumn` (opcode ID 11) trusts attacker-supplied plane bounds.
+
+### Failing plane bounds in `DeltaPerColumn`
+- Attackers set `plane=5125` and `planes=5123` even though Stage-3 images only expose planes 0–2 (RGB).
+- Quram computes `opcode_last_plane = image_planes + opcode_planes` instead of `plane + count`, and never checks whether the resulting plane range fits inside the image.
+- The loop therefore writes a delta to `raw_pixel_buffer[plane_index]` with a fully controlled offset (e.g., plane 5125 ⇒ offset `5125 * 2 bytes/pixel = 0x2800`). Each opcode adds a 16-bit float value (0x6666) to the targeted location, yielding a precise heap OOB add primitive.
+
+### Turning increments into arbitrary writes
+- The exploit first corrupts Stage-3 `QuramDngImage.bottom/right` using 480 malformed `DeltaPerColumn` operations so future opcodes treat enormous coordinates as in-bounds.
+- `MapTable` opcodes (opcode 7) are then aimed at those fake bounds. Using a substitution table of all zeros or a `DeltaPerColumn` with `-Inf` deltas, the attacker zeroes any region, then applies additional deltas to write exact values.
+- Because the opcode parameters live inside the DNG metadata, the payload can encode hundreds of thousands of writes without touching process memory directly.
+
+## Heap Shaping Under Scudo
+
+Scudo buckets allocations by size. Quram happens to allocate the following objects with identical 0x30-byte chunk sizes, so they land in the same region (0x40-byte spacing on the heap):
+- `QuramDngImage` descriptors for Stage 1/2/3
+- `QuramDngOpcodeTrimBounds` and vendor `Unknown` opcodes (ID ≥14, including ID 23)
+
+The exploit sequences allocations to deterministically place chunks:
+1. Stage-1 `Unknown(23)` opcodes (20,000 entries) spray 0x30 chunks that later get freed.
+2. Stage-2 frees those opcodes and places a new `QuramDngImage` inside the freed region.
+3. 240 Stage-2 `Unknown(23)` entries are freed, and Stage-3 immediately allocates its `QuramDngImage` plus a new raw pixel buffer of the same size, reusing those spots.
+4. A crafted `TrimBounds` opcode runs first in list 3 and allocates yet another raw pixel buffer before freeing Stage-2 state, guaranteeing "raw pixel buffer ➜ QuramDngImage" adjacency.
+5. 640 additional `TrimBounds` entries are marked `minVersion=1.4.0.1` so the dispatcher skips them, but their backing objects stay allocated and later become primitive targets.
+
+This choreography puts the Stage-3 raw buffer immediately before the Stage-3 `QuramDngImage`, so the plane-based overflow flips fields inside the descriptor rather than crashing random state.
+
+## Reusing Vendor "Unknown" Opcodes as Data Blobs
+
+Samsung leaves the high bit set in vendor-specific opcode IDs (e.g., ID 23), which instructs the interpreter to *allocate* the structure but skip execution. The exploit abuses those dormant objects as attacker-controlled heaps:
+- Opcode list 1 and 2 `Unknown(23)` entries serve as contiguous scratchpads for storing payload bytes (JOP chain at offset 0xf000 and a shell command at 0x10000 relative to the raw buffer).
+- Because the interpreter still treats each object as an opcode when list 3 is processed, commandeering one object's vtable later is enough to start executing attacker data.
+
+## Crafting Bogus `MapTable` Objects & Bypassing ASLR
+
+`MapTable` objects are larger than `TrimBounds`, but once the layout corruption lands, the parser happily reads extra parameters out-of-bounds:
+1. Use the linear write primitive to partially overwrite a `TrimBounds` vtable pointer with a crafted `MapTable` substitution table that maps lower 2 bytes from a neighbouring `TrimBounds` vtable to the `MapTable` vtable. Only the low bytes differ between supported Quram builds, so a single 64K lookup table can handle seven firmware versions and every 4 KB ASLR slide.
+2. Patch the rest of the `TrimBounds` fields (top/left/width/planes) so the object behaves like a valid `MapTable` when executed later.
+3. Execute the fake opcode over zeroed memory. Because the substitution table pointer actually references another opcode's vtable, the output bytes become *leaked* low-order addresses from `libimagecodec.quram.so` or its GOT.
+4. Apply additional `MapTable` passes to convert those two-byte leaks into offsets toward gadgets such as `__ink_jpeg_enc_process_image+64`, `QURAMWINK_Read_IO2+124`, `qpng_check_IHDR+624`, and libc's `__system_property_get` entry. The attackers effectively rebuild full addresses inside their sprayed opcode region without native memory disclosure APIs.
+
+## Triggering the JOP ➜ `system()` Transition
+
+Once the gadget pointers and shell command are staged inside the opcode spray:
+1. A final wave of `DeltaPerColumn` writes adds `0x0100` to offset 0x22 of the Stage-3 `QuramDngImage`, shifting its raw buffer pointer by 0x10000 so it now references the attacker command string.
+2. The interpreter starts executing the tail of 1040 `Unknown(23)` opcodes. The first corrupted entry has its vtable replaced with the forged table at offset 0xf000, so `QuramDngOpcode::aboutToApply` resolves `qpng_read_data` (the 4th entry) out of the fake table.
+3. The chained gadgets perform: load the `QuramDngImage` pointer, add 0x20 to point at the raw buffer pointer, dereference it, copy the result into `x19/x0`, then jump through GOT slots rewritten to `system`. Because the raw buffer pointer now equals the attacker string, the final gadget executes `system(<shell command>)` inside `com.samsung.ipservice`.
+
+## Notes on Allocator Variants
+
+Two payload families exist: one tuned for jemalloc, another for scudo. They differ in how opcode blocks are ordered to achieve adjacency but share the same logical primitives (DeltaPerColumn bug ➜ MapTable zero/write ➜ bogus vtable ➜ JOP). Scudo's disabled quarantine makes 0x30-byte freelist reuse deterministic, while jemalloc relies on size-class control via tile/subIFD sizing.
