CVE-2026-34743 Apr 02, 18:36 LOW PATCH Monitor

Buffer overflow in XZ Utils lzma_index_decoder() allows memory corruption when processing Index records with no data entries prior to version 5.8.3. Unauthenticated remote attackers can trigger a heap overflow via crafted compressed data, potentially causing denial of service or memory corruption. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score (1.7) due to attack time requirement and limited impact scope, with no confirmed active exploitation at time of analysis.
