Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in Assimp up to 6.0.4. Affected by this vulnerability is the function Assimp::glTFImporter::ImportMeshes of the file glTFImporter.cpp of the component glTFImporter. This manipulation causes null pointer dereference. The attack is restricted to local execution. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project tagged the reported issue as bug.
AnalysisAI
Null pointer dereference in Assimp's glTF mesh importer (versions up to and including 6.0.4) allows a locally authenticated attacker with low privileges to crash any application that uses the library to process a crafted 3D model file. The flaw resides specifically in the Assimp::glTFImporter::ImportMeshes function within glTFImporter.cpp, meaning only applications that invoke the glTF import pipeline are exposed. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Local execution is required - the attack vector is AV:L, meaning the attacker must have the ability to execute code or supply files on the host system. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The real-world risk is low. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A local user with standard (low-privilege) account access supplies a specially crafted .gltf file to an application that uses Assimp ≤6.0.4 for 3D model loading - for example, a content creation tool, game engine editor, or model viewer. When the application attempts to import the file, the call to Assimp::glTFImporter::ImportMeshes dereferences a null pointer, immediately crashing the host process. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patched version has been identified at time of analysis - the Assimp project tagged GitHub issue #6609 as a bug, and no fix commit or tagged release resolving this null dereference has been confirmed from available references. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
