Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the victim to open attacker-supplied Blu-ray content containing a crafted ClipInfo (.clpi) file placed in the BDMV/CLIPINF directory, where num_ep_fine is set to zero while ref_ep_fine_id is left unclamped; the out-of-bounds read is triggered specifically when the application performs a seek operation that accesses the EP-map fine table. Limiting factors that reduce real-world risk: the attack vector is LOCAL (the malicious file must reach the victim's filesystem - no network exploitation), it requires user interaction (opening the media and initiating a seek), and the impact is confined to crashing the application (availability only) with no code execution or data disclosure. Affected scope is VideoLAN libbluray through version 1.5.1 and any media player embedding it.

Impact

This is a medium-severity denial-of-service issue, not a high-priority emergency. The input CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H) scores 6.8 and tells a consistent story: a LOCAL attack vector requiring passive user interaction (the victim must open attacker-supplied Blu-ray content), with impact limited strictly to availability (VA:H) and no confidentiality or integrity impact (VC:N/VI:N). Although PR:N marks it unauthenticated, the AV:L/UI:P combination means this cannot be exploited remotely without network interaction - an attacker must get a crafted .clpi file onto the victim's system and have the victim play/seek the disc image. No EPSS score, CISA KEV listing, or confirmed public exploit code was provided in the input, so there is no signal of active or probable exploitation. The 'Information Disclosure' tag conflicts with the CVSS vector's VC:N (no confidentiality impact), and the 'Buffer Overflow' tag is imprecise for a CWE-125 out-of-bounds READ whose only realized effect is a crash - treat the realistic impact as DoS only. Bottom line: a legitimate bug worth patching in the normal cycle, but low real-world urgency given local vector, required user interaction, and availability-only impact.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious Blu-ray directory structure and delivers it to a victim (e.g., a downloaded disc image, USB media, or ripped folder) with a .clpi file in BDMV/CLIPINF whose EP-map fine table is empty (num_ep_fine=0) but carries an unclamped ref_ep_fine_id. When the victim opens the content in a libbluray-backed player and performs a seek, clpi_access_point() reads out of bounds and the application crashes. No public exploit code was identified in the input, though a technical write-up describing the flaw exists.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 19, 2026

Out-of-bounds read in VideoLAN libbluray through 1.5.1 can crash applications that embed the library when a crafted ClipInfo (.clpi) file containing an empty EP-map fine table is opened and a seek operation accesses that table, resulting in denial of service. The attack is local and requires user interaction to open attacker-supplied Blu-ray content; impact is limited to availability, with no code execution or data disclosure. No public exploit was identified at time of analysis, and the issue is rated medium severity.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch was identified at time of analysis; users should monitor VideoLAN/libbluray upstream and the VulnCheck advisory for a fixed release. Until a patch is available, avoid opening untrusted Blu-ray discs, images, or directories, and disable automatic playback/autoplay of removable media because the trigger requires opening the media and seeking. If untrusted Blu-ray content must be inspected, validate .clpi files under BDMV/CLIPINF before playback to ensure num_ep_fine is greater than zero and ref_ep_fine_id is within the table bounds; this may reject malformed or unusual legitimate discs. Run media players in a low-privilege sandbox or disposable VM to contain crashes, accepting performance and usability overhead, and monitor for application crashes as evidence of attempted triggering.

Technical ContextAI · show details

libbluray is VideoLAN's Blu-ray disc navigation and playback library used by media players to parse BDMV structures. The vulnerable function clpi_access_point() in src/libbluray/bdnav/clpi_parse.c handles ClipInfo (.clpi) files stored under BDMV/CLIPINF, including the EP-map fine table indexed by num_ep_fine and ref_ep_fine_id. When num_ep_fine is zero but ref_ep_fine_id is not clamped, a seek that dereferences the fine table performs an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125). The flaw affects libbluray through 1.5.1 and any player embedding it; exploitation requires local placement of the crafted file and user interaction to open the media and seek, consistent with the assessed CVSS:3.1 vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H.

DescriptionCVE.org

VideoLAN libbluray through 1.5.1 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in clpi_access_point() that allows attackers to crash applications by supplying a ClipInfo file with an empty EP-map fine table. Attackers can place a crafted .clpi file in BDMV/CLIPINF with num_ep_fine set to zero and an unclamped ref_ep_fine_id, triggering reads during seeking for denial of service.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.

Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
