CVE-2026-111146 Oct 15, 18:57 MEDIUM POC This Month

Heap out-of-bounds read in ytnef through 2.1.2 allows an attacker to crash the ytnefprint utility and incidentally leak small amounts of adjacent heap memory by supplying a crafted winmail.dat whose compressed RTF property decompresses to data without a trailing NUL terminator. The flaw sits in MAPIPrint() in lib/ytnef.c and is reachable unauthenticated, but exploitation requires that a victim or an automated workflow open the malicious file, since the attack surface is local file parsing rather than a network service. Publicly available exploit code exists (linked proof-of-concept write-up), and there is no confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV); the dominant realistic outcome is denial of service via crash, with only incidental memory disclosure of limited value.

CVE-2026-111145 Oct 15, 18:57 MEDIUM POC This Month

Heap out-of-bounds read in ytnef through 2.1.2 allows unauthenticated local attackers to crash the application and leak adjacent heap memory by supplying a crafted winmail.dat TNEF file with a malicious PT_BINARY MAPI property. Publicly available exploit code exists, though the vulnerability is not confirmed as actively exploited. The CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9 (moderate), and exploitation requires the caller to process the attachment (passive user interaction).
