|---|
| Descrizione | A vulnerability was found in GPAC up to commit f1219cde (2026-07-25) and classified as problematic. Affected is the function xmt_parse_element in the file scene_manager/loader_xmt.c:2104 of the component MP4Box. The manipulation via a crafted XMT file processed with the -add argument leads to a reachable assertion (assert(0)) when node types mismatch (OrderedGroup vs Untransform/UI_ROOT), causing an immediate process abort. It is possible to launch the attack locally. User interaction is required.
Technical Details
- Affected file/function: scene_manager/loader_xmt.c:2104 / xmt_parse_element
- Vulnerable parameter: XMT scene element parsing with node type mismatch (OrderedGroup vs Untransform/UI_ROOT)
- Attack vector: Local
- Privileges required: None
- Trigger condition: Processing a crafted MP4 file with "MP4Box -add" causes the XMT parser to reach assert(0) when encountering an unexpected element type. Requires --enable-debug build.
Impact
- Confidentiality: None
- Integrity: None
- Availability: High
CVSS v3.1
Score: 5.5 (Medium)
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
