Summary
mp4v2 v2.1.3 was discovered to contain a memory leak when a method calling MP4File::ReadBytes() had allocated memory but did not catch exceptions thrown by ReadBytes().
Risk Assessment
The memory leak may lead to increased resource consumption, which can affect application stability and system performance in the long run.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update to a newer version of mp4v2 that fixes this issue and to review the code to ensure proper exception handling.
Other vulnerabilities in mp4v2 v2.1.3
See all- CVE-2024-58397Medium
MP4v2 through 2.1.3 contains a heap-based out-of-bounds read in MP4File::GetChapters(). An attacker can supply an MP4 file whose chapter sample is shorter than its declared title length, causing reads past heap allocations.
- CVE-2026-95122High
mp4v2 2.0.0 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in MP4File::GenerateTracks() in src/mp4file.cpp. This allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service
- CVE-2026-95121High
An issue in mp4v2 2.0.0 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via the MP4RtpAtom::ReadHntiType() in src/atom_rtp.cpp. A specially crafted MP4 file can cause an undersized rtp atom to produce a near-2^64 allocation size through an unchecked offset subtraction
