DescriptionCVE.org

The Signed Video Framework contained a  buffer overflow issue

which could lead the application using this framework to crash. The issue exclusively affects the tools used for the validation of signed content. The AXIS OS device's signed video functionality remains unaffected.

AnalysisAI

Buffer overflow in Axis Communications' Signed Video Framework crashes applications that use its signed content validation tooling. Specifically, the Signed Media Verifier and Axis File Player are affected when processing maliciously crafted signed video content, while the AXIS OS device-side signed video functionality remains entirely unaffected. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Craft malformed signed video file
Delivery
Deliver file to analyst or validation pipeline
Exploit
User opens file in Signed Media Verifier or Axis File Player
Execution
Buffer overflow triggered in validation parser
Impact
Validation application crashes

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target is running one of the three affected validation tools - Signed Video Framework library, Signed Media Verifier, or Axis File Player - and that a user actively opens or processes a specially crafted signed video file (UI:R). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H reflects a remotely triggerable crash that requires both high attack complexity and user interaction, substantially constraining real-world exploitability - even a mid-sized municipal IT team in opole deploying these validation tools would find the practical attack surface limited to scenarios where an analyst manually opens a crafted signed video file. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malformed signed video file with a payload designed to trigger the buffer overflow in the framework's validation logic, then delivers it to a target analyst or automated system that uses Signed Media Verifier or Axis File Player to validate signed content. When the victim opens or processes the file, the parsing routine overflows a buffer, crashing the validation application. …
Remediation Consult the Axis vendor advisory at https://www.axis.com/dam/public/6c/f3/ac/cve-2026-8158pdf-en-US-543645.pdf for the authoritative fixed version - no specific patched release version was included in the available intelligence data, so a precise upgrade target cannot be confirmed here. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
