DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in Dvidelabs flatcc up to 0.6.3. This impacts the function align_order_members of the file src/compiler/semantics.c of the component Duplicate Symbol Handler. This manipulation causes reachable assertion. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. Patch name: 8b19ba4e992ebcad7f5970704d1afc5507fa5205. To fix this issue, it is recommended to deploy a patch.

AnalysisAI

Reachable assertion in the flatcc FlatBuffers schema compiler (versions 0.6.0-0.6.3) crashes the compiler process when a crafted schema file containing duplicate symbol declarations is processed. The align_order_members function in src/compiler/semantics.c proceeds into member-ordering logic after the parser has already recorded a failure state due to duplicate symbols, violating the function's internal invariant that no duplicates exist and triggering an assertion abort (CWE-617). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires supplying a crafted FlatBuffers schema file (`.fbs`) with duplicate symbol declarations to an instance of the flatcc compiler (versions 0.6.0-0.6.3). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:L, score 5.5) correctly characterizes this as medium severity with only low availability impact - the consequence is a compiler process crash, not code execution, data exfiltration, or any runtime service disruption. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Apply fix commit 8b19ba4e992ebcad7f5970704d1afc5507fa5205, which adds early-return guards before `align_order_members` in `process_table` and before semantic analysis in `fb_build_schema`. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
