Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-26 21:31 – Updated: 2026-05-26 21:31
VLAI
Details
A security vulnerability has been detected in GPAC up to 2.4.0. Affected by this issue is the function Media_GetSample of the file src/isomedia/media.c of the component MP4Box. Such manipulation of the argument cat leads to memory leak. The attack can only be performed from a local environment. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The name of the patch is e79c5cbe8b3fed27f4854ec229457d30c96206f1. It is best practice to apply a patch to resolve this issue.

Summary
ImageMagick: MSL image stack index may fail to refresh, leading to leaked images
Details
Sometimes msl.c fails to update the stack index, so an image is stored in the wrong slot and never freed on error, causing leaks.

Direct leak of 13512 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-09-18 15:30 – Updated: 2025-12-11 15:30
VLAI
Details
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
trace/blktrace: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.

Summary
Memory leaks in code encrypting and verifying RSA payloads
Details
Using crafted public RSA keys which are not compliant with SP 800-56B can cause a small memory leak when encrypting and verifying payloads.
An attacker can leverage this flaw to gradually erode available memory to the point where the host crashes for lack of resources. Upon restart the attacker would have to begin again, but nevertheless there is the potential to deny service.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-22 15:31 – Updated: 2026-04-28 18:30
VLAI
Details
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: asus: avoid memory leak in asus_report_fixup()
The asus_report_fixup() function was returning a newly allocated kmemdup()-allocated buffer, but never freeing it. Switch to devm_kzalloc() to ensure the memory is managed and freed automatically when the device is removed.
The caller of report_fixup() does not take ownership of the returned pointer, but it is permitted to return a pointer whose lifetime is at least that of the input buffer.
Also fix a harmless out-of-bounds read by copying only the original descriptor size.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:42 – Updated: 2022-07-16 00:00
VLAI
Details
A vulnerability in the network stack of Cisco NX-OS Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability exists because the software improperly releases resources when it processes certain IPv6 packets that are destined to an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending multiple crafted IPv6 packets to an affected device. A successful exploit could cause the network stack to run out of available buffers, impairing operations of control plane and management plane protocols and resulting in a DoS condition. Manual intervention would be required to restore normal operations on the affected device. For more information about the impact of this vulnerability, see the Details section of this advisory.

Mitigation MIT-41
Implementation
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Choose a language or tool that provides automatic memory management, or makes manual memory management less error-prone.
- For example, glibc in Linux provides protection against free of invalid pointers.
- When using Xcode to target OS X or iOS, enable automatic reference counting (ARC) [REF-391].
- To help correctly and consistently manage memory when programming in C++, consider using a smart pointer class such as std::auto_ptr (defined by ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 14882:2003), std::shared_ptr and std::unique_ptr (specified by an upcoming revision of the C++ standard, informally referred to as C++ 1x), or equivalent solutions such as Boost.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
Use an abstraction library to abstract away risky APIs. Not a complete solution.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
Build and Compilation
Consider using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector (bdwgc), which can help avoid leaks.
