Mapping guidance

This CWE entry is at the Base level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.

Carefully read both the name and description to ensure that this mapping is an appropriate fit. Do not try to 'force' a mapping to a lower-level Base/Variant simply to comply with this preferred level of abstraction.

Modes of introduction

Implementation

Detection methods

Fuzzing

Fuzz testing (fuzzing) is a powerful technique for generating large numbers of diverse inputs - either randomly or algorithmically - and dynamically invoking the code with those inputs. Even with random inputs, it is often capable of generating unexpected results such as crashes, memory corruption, or resource consumption. Fuzzing effectively produces repeatable test cases that clearly indicate bugs, which helps developers to diagnose the issues.

Effectiveness: High

Automated Static Analysis

Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without having to execute it. Typically, this is done by building a model of data flow and control flow, then searching for potentially-vulnerable patterns that connect "sources" (origins of input) with "sinks" (destinations where the data interacts with external components, a lower layer such as the OS, etc.)

Effectiveness: High

Automated Dynamic Analysis

Use tools that are integrated during compilation to insert runtime error-checking mechanisms related to memory safety errors, such as AddressSanitizer (ASan) for C/C++ [REF-1518].

Effectiveness: Moderate

Crafted inputs are necessary to reach the code containing the error, such as generated by fuzzers. Also, these tools may reduce performance, and they only report the error condition - not the original mistake that led to the error.

CVE-2026-121942 (GCVE-0-2026-121942)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-04 12:31 – Updated: 2026-11-04 18:53

Title

ZBar through 0.23.95 Out-of-Bounds Read via _zbar_sq_decode() in sqcode.c

Summary

ZBar through 0.23.95 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in _zbar_sq_decode() in zbar/sqcode.c that allows attackers to read heap memory outside the image buffer via crafted SQ code images. Attackers can supply an image with a skewed SQ code finder pattern near the edge, producing unchecked sample coordinates that crash the decoder and leak bytes into output.

CVE-2026-121626 (GCVE-0-2026-121626)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 17:13 – Updated: 2026-11-03 17:13

Title

GNU Gatekeeper before 5.16 Out-of-Bounds Read in H.460.24 RTCP Probe Handler

Summary

GNU Gatekeeper (gnugk) before 5.16 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in H46024Socket::ReceivedProbePacket() that allows remote attackers to cause a heap over-read by sending short probe packets. Attackers can send a short application-defined RTCP packet to the media port during H.460.24 probing to read past the heap allocation and possibly crash the gatekeeper.

Severity

6.3 (Medium)

CVE-2026-121625 (GCVE-0-2026-121625)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 17:13 – Updated: 2026-11-03 17:24

Title

GNU Gatekeeper before 5.16 Out-of-Bounds Read via RTCP SDES Parsing

Summary

GNU Gatekeeper (gnugk) before 5.16 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in ParseRTCP() in ProxyChannel.cxx that allows remote RTP peers to read heap memory past received packets. Attackers can send RTCP SDES items lacking a NUL byte to the media proxy port during proxied H.323 calls with EnableRTCPStats enabled, crashing the gatekeeper.

CVE-2026-121604 (GCVE-0-2026-121604)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 16:26 – Updated: 2026-11-03 16:26

Title

wlroots before 0.20.2 Out-of-Bounds Read via read_surface_class() in xwm.c

Summary

wlroots before 0.20.2 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in read_surface_class() in xwayland/xwm.c that allows local X11 clients to leak compositor heap memory. Attackers can set a WM_CLASS property with a NUL-terminated instance but unterminated class, exposing over-read heap bytes as the window class or app_id over IPC.

Severity

4.8 (Medium)

CVE-2026-121505 (GCVE-0-2026-121505)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 14:17 – Updated: 2026-11-03 18:12

Title

Out-of-bounds Read in NTPsec

Summary

An out-of-bounds read in the NTS-KE client response parser (nts_client_process_response_core) in NTPsec before 1.2.4 allows a malicious NTS-KE server to read the client's stack memory, including pointers that defeat ASLR, which the client then sends in cleartext as NTS cookies, via an NTS-KE record whose declared length exceeds the data received.

Severity

3.7 (Low)

CVE-2026-121397 (GCVE-0-2026-121397)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 14:28 – Updated: 2026-11-03 16:06

Title

FreeRDP before 3.32.2 Heap Over-Read via WinPR save_png_to_buffer()

Summary

FreeRDP before 3.32.2 contains a heap buffer over-read vulnerability in save_png_to_buffer() that allows malicious RDP servers to leak client memory by sending 16 bpp DIB clipboard data. Attackers can offer a CF_DIB BI_BITFIELDS image that, when converted to PNG for a local application, embeds client heap bytes into the clipboard image.

CVE-2026-121387 (GCVE-0-2026-121387)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 14:27 – Updated: 2026-11-03 14:27

Title

FreeRDP 2.0.0 before 3.32.2 Out-of-Bounds Read via GSM610/WAV49 Decoder

Summary

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.

Severity

5.3 (Medium)

CVE-2026-120830 (GCVE-0-2026-120830)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-11-03 00:00 – Updated: 2026-11-04 22:06

Title

Libslirp: libslirp: out-of-bounds heap read in icmp_forward_error() leading to information disclosure

Summary

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.

Severity

7.4 (High)

This content was generated utilizing AI tools in conjunction with data from https://cmetaxonomy.org. Customers are advised to independently evaluate and test these temporary mitigations within their own infrastructure.\n\nThe highest-value action is to clamp quoted IPv4 payload length to actual buffer bounds in libslirp icmp_forward_error before copying data into ICMP error responses: upgrade to the corresponding fixed Red Hat builds, which clamp s_ip_len to the source buffer length msrc-\u003em_len before copying payload data into the ICMP error packet, closing crafted truncated IPv4 packets with ip_len exceeding mbuf length. Until patched, this is a concern on guests or containers transmitting network traffic through libslirp, so restrict untrusted guests or containers from transmitting network traffic across libslirp virtual network interfaces. These controls limit blast radius and contain exploitation, but they do not fix the underlying out-of-bounds heap read defect \u2014 apply the upstream patch to fully remediate."

Implementation

Strategy: Input Validation

Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
When performing input validation, consider all potentially relevant properties, including length, type of input, the full range of acceptable values, missing or extra inputs, syntax, consistency across related fields, and conformance to business rules. As an example of business rule logic, "boat" may be syntactically valid because it only contains alphanumeric characters, but it is not valid if the input is only expected to contain colors such as "red" or "blue."
Do not rely exclusively on looking for malicious or malformed inputs. This is likely to miss at least one undesirable input, especially if the code's environment changes. This can give attackers enough room to bypass the intended validation. However, denylists can be useful for detecting potential attacks or determining which inputs are so malformed that they should be rejected outright.
To reduce the likelihood of introducing an out-of-bounds read, ensure that you validate and ensure correct calculations for any length argument, buffer size calculation, or offset. Be especially careful of relying on a sentinel (i.e. special character such as NUL) in untrusted inputs.

Mitigation

Architecture and Design

Strategy: Language Selection

Use a language that provides appropriate memory abstractions.

CAPEC-540: Overread Buffers

An adversary attacks a target by providing input that causes an application to read beyond the boundary of a defined buffer. This typically occurs when a value influencing where to start or stop reading is set to reflect positions outside of the valid memory location of the buffer. This type of attack may result in exposure of sensitive information, a system crash, or arbitrary code execution.
