      <title>CVE-2026-127915 — TLV iterator does not bound each entry against the declared TLV area in MCUboot bootutil</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-127915</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; mcu-tools mcuboot&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MCUboot TLV iterator bootutil_tlv_iter_next() in boot/bootutil/src/tlv.c walks image trailer TLVs with a single loop guard (it-&amp;gt;tlv_off &amp;lt; it-&amp;gt;tlv_end) and advances by sizeof(struct image_tlv) + tlv.it_len using the attacker-controlled it_len field, without validating that the entry&amp;#39;s header or payload stays within it-&amp;gt;tlv_end. As a result the 4-byte header read can extend up to 3 bytes past the declared TLV area, and the returned (off, len) can describe a payload that runs past it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The path is pre-authentication: TLVs are parsed during bootutil_img_validate() before the signature is verified, and a crafted image can be presented through DFU / serial-recovery / OTA. However the impact is contained by surrounding guards: bootutil_img_validate() first rejects a TLV area larger than bootutil_max_image_size(), the default LOAD_IMAGE_DATA sink is flash_area_read() which bounds-checks against the flash partition and fails an out-of-partition read, and every payload consumer (EXPECTED_HASH_TLV, EXPECTED_KEY_TLV, EXPECTED_SIG_TLV, IMAGE_TLV_SEC_CNT) clamps len against a fixed buffer before copying.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The residual effect in a default flash build is therefore an out-of-region read confined to the attacker&amp;#39;s own slot partition whose result is never observable, yielding at worst a clean validation failure rather than memory corruption or information disclosure. A genuine (though still bounded) out-of-bounds read remains under the non-default MCUBOOT_RAM_LOAD configuration, where LOAD…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
