Technical Description
GPAC MP4Box is affected by an invalid command-node reference while destroying an input containing a malicious BIFS/LASeR scene. gf_sg_command_del at src/scenegraph/commands.c:66 accesses a node referenced by a command during scene graph teardown. The public ASan trace shows a READ access to a zero-page address such as 0x455, causing SEGV.
In a supplemental gcc ASan reproduction on the same 49dee5ca revision, the same gf_sg_command_del frame is reported as a heap-use-after-free: the command node was already released before gf_sg_command_del read it.
The teardown path is:
gf_svg_node_del / gf_sg_mpeg4_node_del
-> gf_node_del
-> gf_node_unregister
-> gf_node_unregister_children
-> gf_sg_parent_reset
-> gf_sg_command_del
No confidentiality loss, integrity impact, or code execution has been demonstrated.
Proof of Concept
PoC archive: poc_10.zip
PoC URL: https://github.com/user-attachments/files/30635904/poc_10.zip
Command:
MP4Box -bt poc_10
Observed sanitizer result:
AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL
ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000455
The signal is caused by a READ memory access.
Hint: address points to the zero page.
#0 gf_sg_command_del src/scenegraph/commands.c:66:43
SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: SEGV src/scenegraph/commands.c:66:43 in gf_sg_command_del
Supplemental gcc ASan result on 49dee5ca:
ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-use-after-free
READ of size 8
#0 gf_sg_command_del src/scenegraph/commands.c:66
SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: heap-use-after-free scenegraph/commands.c:66 in gf_sg_command_del
Root Cause
The LASeR/BIFS command handling path can retain a command node reference that is released before scene graph teardown. gf_sg_command_del later dereferences the stale node pointer while walking command destruction, producing either a zero-page SEGV or an ASan-detected use-after-free depending on sanitizer behavior.
Countermeasure
Upgrade to a GPAC build containing commit e34f4ba349d55cd1849f0bcf4cf46552732e2db7:
https://github.com/gpac/gpac/commit/e34f4ba349d55cd1849f0bcf4cf46552732e2db7
The patch replaces direct com->node assignments in LASeR decoding with gf_sg_command_set_node() and adjusts related command cleanup ordering. Environments that cannot upgrade should avoid processing untrusted BIFS/LASeR scenes, run MP4Box in a sandbox, and isolate crashes with timeouts.
