A heap-based buffer over-read was found in the function OpCode (called from decompileINCR_DECR line 1440) in util/decompile.c in Ming 0.4.8, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file.
AnalysisAI
A heap-based buffer over-read was found in the function OpCode (called from decompileINCR_DECR line 1440) in util/decompile.c in Ming 0.4.8, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a. Rated medium severity (CVSS 5.5), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. No vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Read (CWE-125), which allows attackers to read data from memory outside the intended buffer boundaries. A heap-based buffer over-read was found in the function OpCode (called from decompileINCR_DECR line 1440) in util/decompile.c in Ming 0.4.8, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file. Affected products include: Libming Ming.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate array indices and buffer lengths. Use memory-safe languages. Enable AddressSanitizer during testing.
