DescriptionGitHub Advisory

GPAC is an open-source multimedia framework. Prior to commit 86b0e36, a heap-based buffer overflow (write) vulnerability was discovered in GPAC MP4Box. The vulnerability exists in the gf_xml_parse_bit_sequence_bs function in utils/xml_bin_custom.c when processing a crafted NHML file containing malicious <BS> (BitSequence) elements. An attacker can exploit this by providing a specially crafted NHML file, causing an out-of-bounds write on the heap. This issue has been via commit 86b0e36.

AnalysisAI

Heap-based buffer overflow in GPAC MP4Box's XML parsing function allows local attackers to corrupt memory and potentially crash the application or achieve code execution by crafting malicious NHML files with specially formatted BitSequence elements. The vulnerability affects systems processing untrusted multimedia files and remains unpatched as of this advisory. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The CVSS v3.1 score of 5.8 with vector CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H indicates a moderate-severity vulnerability with several mitigating factors. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malicious NHML file containing oversized or specially formatted BitSequence elements that trigger buffer overflow logic in the gf_xml_parse_bit_sequence_bs function. The attacker either uploads this file to a shared storage location accessible to the target user or convinces them to download and process it using MP4Box (e.g., for multimedia format conversion or validation). …
Remediation Update GPAC to a version that includes commit 86b0e36 or later. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
