Remotely reachable WebSocket handler with no auth (AV:N/PR:N) yields at least a reliable crash (A:H) and attacker-controlled heap corruption giving limited C/I; requires the non-default WS interface exposed.

DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in GPAC 26.07.0. This affects the function rmt_client_handle_ws_frame of the file src/utils/rmt_ws.c of the component WebSocket Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument payload_size can lead to heap-based buffer overflow. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. Upgrading to version abi-16.26 is able to mitigate this issue. This patch is called 37bccbb30cf53a0e1a084cea9a1ce422b3ddfe12. Upgrading the affected component is recommended.

AnalysisAI

Heap-based buffer overflow in GPAC 26.07.0's Remotery-style WebSocket remote-monitoring handler (rmt_client_handle_ws_frame in src/utils/rmt_ws.c) lets remote attackers corrupt heap memory by sending a WebSocket frame whose advertised payload_size is manipulated, since the value is trusted when computing how much extra data to read. The CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N and the E:P exploit-maturity flag; an independent assessment rates the memory-safety consequence more severely (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H), reflecting that availability impact can be complete once the interface is reached. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires that GPAC's Remotery-style WebSocket remote-monitoring/profiling interface (the rmt_ws handler) be compiled in, enabled, and network-reachable by the attacker - this is not a default runtime posture for typical GPAC/MP4Box usage, and it is the primary limiting factor. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N and partial impacts (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), and the E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit-maturity flag matches the reality that a Python PoC (poc_rmt_ws_malicious_frame.py) is publicly attached to the GitHub issue. … 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 Vendor-released patch: upgrade to GPAC abi-16.26 (release tag https://github.com/gpac/gpac/releases/tag/abi-16.26), which contains commit 37bccbb30cf53a0e1a084cea9a1ce422b3ddfe12 - this is the authoritative fix and directly removes the overflow by bounding advertised payload sizes to 256 MB, switching to gf_bs_available() for the size comparison, and rejecting frames whose actual extra-payload read does not match the expected size. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
