| Issue summary: Use of the low-level GF(2^m) elliptic curve APIs with untrusted
explicit values for the field polynomial can lead to out-of-bounds memory reads
or writes.
Impact summary: Out of bound memory writes can lead to an application crash or
even a possibility of a remote code execution, however, in all the protocols
involving Elliptic Curve Cryptography that we're aware of, either only "named
curves" are supported, or, if explicit curve parameters are supported, they
specify an X9.62 encoding of binary (GF(2^m)) curves that can't represent
problematic input values. Thus the likelihood of existence of a vulnerable
application is low.
In particular, the X9.62 encoding is used for ECC keys in X.509 certificates,
so problematic inputs cannot occur in the context of processing X.509
certificates. Any problematic use-cases would have to be using an "exotic"
curve encoding.
The affected APIs include: EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m(), EC_GROUP_new_from_params(),
and various supporting BN_GF2m_*() functions.
Applications working with "exotic" explicit binary (GF(2^m)) curve parameters,
that make it possible to represent invalid field polynomials with a zero
constant term, via the above or similar APIs, may terminate abruptly as a
result of reading or writing outside of array bounds. Remote code execution
cannot easily be ruled out.
The FIPS modules in 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue. |
| A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good, specifically in the H.264 RTP depayloader element. When processing MTAP16 or MTAP24 multi-time aggregation RTP packets, a signed/unsigned integer conversion error causes the remaining-length counter to underflow to a large positive value when the packet is truncated. This allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds heap read of up to approximately 64 KiB of process memory by sending a single malformed RTP packet. Successful exploitation can crash the receiving GStreamer pipeline (denial of service), and in relay or transcoding deployments where output is accessible to the attacker, may expose adjacent heap contents. |
| FreeRDP 2.0.0 before 3.32.2 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in freerdp_dsp_decode_gsm610 that allows malicious RDP servers to read past audio buffers by sending truncated GSM610 frames. Attackers can negotiate GSM610 on rdpsnd and send a WAVE2 message shorter than a 33- or 32-byte WAV49 frame to crash the client. |
| A flaw was found in libslirp in icmp_forward_error(). When building an ICMP error response, the length of the quoted original IPv4 packet was taken from the IP header without clamping it to the actual buffer length. A truncated or malformed packet could cause an out-of-bounds heap read, leaking host memory into the ICMP error packet returned to a guest or container. |
| A post-authentication Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in SonicOS allows a remote attacker to crash a firewall. |
| In process of C2SoftApvDec.cpp, there is a possible out-of-bounds read due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to remote information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. |
| An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.7 and iPadOS 26.7, iOS 27 and iPadOS 27, macOS Golden Gate 27, macOS Sequoia 15.8, macOS Tahoe 26.7, tvOS 27, visionOS 27, watchOS 27. An attacker in wireless proximity may be able to cause unexpected system termination. |
| A vulnerability was determined in Tencent RapidJSON 1.1.0. Impacted is the function GetCachedPowerByIndex in the library include/rapidjson/internal/diyfp.h. This manipulation of the argument decimalPosition causes out-of-bounds read. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet. |
| IBM Watson Speech Services Cartridge 4.0.0 through 5.4.0 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to an out-of-bounds read. |
| An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.7.2 and iPadOS 26.7.2, iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2, macOS Golden Gate 27.2, macOS Sequoia 15.8.2, macOS Tahoe 26.7.2, visionOS 27.2. Processing a maliciously crafted image may result in disclosure of process memory. |
| Out-of-bounds read in Windows Paint allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally. |
| An out-of-bounds read in the TDS RPC procedure-name parser in the Babelfish for PostgreSQL extension versions 1.0-1.5, 2.1-2.15, 3.1-3.12, 4.0-4.8, 5.1-5.4 and in Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL with Babelfish might allow remote authenticated users to read adjacent process memory or cause a denial of service via a malformed TDS RPC request to the TDS port (default 1433).
To remediate this issue, we recommend users upgrade to Babelfish for PostgreSQL extension versions 4.10, 5.6, 6.1 or later. As a workaround, restrict network access to the TDS port (default 1433). Customers using Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL with Babelfish should upgrade their cluster to Aurora PostgreSQL 13.9.16 (1.5.5), 13.23.3 (1.17.2), 14.6.16 (2.3.5), 14.17.8 (2.12.4), 14.18.6 (2.13.3), 14.19.5 (2.14.2), 14.20.5 (2.15.2), 14.22.3 (2.16.1), 14.23.1 (2.17.0), 15.10.8 (3.8.4), 15.12.8 (3.9.4), 15.13.6 (3.10.3), 15.14.5 (3.11.2), 15.15.5 (3.12.2), 15.17.3 (3.13.1), 15.18.1 (3.14.0), 16.8.8 (4.5.5), 16.9.6 (4.6.3), 16.10.5 (4.7.2), 16.11.5 (4.8.2), 16.13.3 (4.9.1), 16.14.1 (4.10.0), 17.4.8 (5.1.4), 17.5.6 (5.2.3), 17.6.5 (5.3.2), 17.7.5 (5.4.2), 17.9.3 (5.5.1), 17.10.1 (5.6.0), 18.3.4 (6.0.2), 18.4.1 (6.1.0) or later, and apply any pending maintenance to ensure they are on the latest patch. |
| As part of Cisco's ongoing commitment to proactive security and product quality, the Cisco NX-OS engineering team has conducted a comprehensive internal security review. This review resulted in a software hardening release that addresses multiple internally discovered vulnerabilities.
The vulnerabilities tracked by CVE-2026-76457 are related to out-of-bounds read issues that are grouped under the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) CWE-125. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: validate the data area in SMB2_read()
SMB2_read() copies le32_to_cpu(rsp->DataLength) bytes from
(char *)rsp + rsp->DataOffset without checking that the range lies
within the response actually received. A READ response with
DataOffset == 0 makes smb2_get_data_area_len() zero the data length, so
smb2_check_message() accepts a frame as short as the fixed response,
while SMB2_read() still uses the server-supplied DataLength, capped only
by CIFS_MAX_MSGSIZE and the caller's length.
A malicious server can answer the synchronous read used by the
mfsymlinks (or SFU) symlink parser with an 81-byte READ response
carrying DataOffset 0 and DataLength 1067, making the client copy 1067
bytes from a 448-byte receive object (KASAN slab-out-of-bounds; up to
16 KiB in the general case).
Clamp a zero (or header-overlapping) DataOffset to read_rsp_size, as
handle_read_data() does for the asynchronous path, and reject the
response unless DataOffset + DataLength fits within rsp_iov.iov_len.
The SMB1 helper was fixed the same way in 5be5bdda5863. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix fiemap wild read on empty truncated response
smb3_fiemap() treats -E2BIG from SMB2_ioctl() as a truncated range blob
and loops for the next chunk. If the server reports
STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW with OutputCount == 0, SMB2_ioctl() returns
-E2BIG with out_data == NULL and out_data_len == 0, and the existing
length checks accept the empty result. The loop then evaluates
next = out_data[num - 1].file_offset + ...
with num == 0, reading 16 bytes before NULL.
Reject a truncated range blob that contains no range, so the resume
offset is never computed from an empty response. Also require the last
range in a truncated blob to advance the resume offset without
overflowing, and to stay within the requested range; a malicious or
broken server could otherwise make no progress or underflow len and loop
forever. Free the previous response buffer before retrying.
Reproduced on 6.6.87.2 with a malicious SMB2 server that answers
FSCTL_QUERY_ALLOCATED_RANGES with STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW and
OutputCount == 0; an FS_IOC_FIEMAP ioctl on the mount oopses in
cifs_fiemap() with CR2 = fffffffffffffff8. The code path is unchanged
on mainline. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject short SESSION_SETUP responses
smb2_check_message() accepts frames shorter than struct smb2_pdu when
the SMB2 status is non-zero, before the minimum-PDU check added by
b4694f269e66d. A 64-byte STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED SESSION_SETUP
response is therefore accepted even though it cannot contain the
SecurityBufferOffset and SecurityBufferLength fields.
The parser then reads those fields from stale bytes left in the reused
receive buffer by an earlier frame. With a long stale
SecurityBufferLength, decode_ntlmssp_challenge() copies up to about
64 KB from beyond the receive object and sends the data back to the
server in the NTLMv2 AUTHENTICATE target info.
Reject short MPR SESSION_SETUP responses before the short-error path,
and validate SecurityBufferOffset + SecurityBufferLength against the
received response length before decoding the challenge.
The ordering bypass is not new: the short-error early return predates
b4694f269e66d, and the unvalidated SecurityBufferLength read predates
the 2016 raw NTLMSSP split in 166cea4dc3a4, so all supported stable
trees are affected. Reproduced on 6.6.87.2; the path is unchanged on
mainline. |
| An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Netfilter Connection Tracking (conntrack) in the Linux kernel. This flaw allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information via the DCCP protocol. |
| A flaw was found in glibc. When the getaddrinfo function is called with the AF_UNSPEC address family and the system is configured with no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf, a DNS response via TCP larger than 2048 bytes can potentially disclose stack contents through the function returned address data, and may cause a crash. |
| A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to cause a 4 byte out-of-bounds read of XFRMA_MTIMER_THRESH when parsing netlink attributes, leading to potential leakage of sensitive heap data to userspace. |
| An out-of-bounds read flaw was found on grub2's NTFS filesystem driver. This issue may allow a physically present attacker to present a specially crafted NTFS file system image to read arbitrary memory locations. A successful attack allows sensitive data cached in memory or EFI variable values to be leaked, presenting a high Confidentiality risk. |
