CVE-2026-3082 [HIGH] CWE-120 GStreamer: GStreamer: Remote Code Execution via heap-based buffer overflow in JPEG parser
GStreamer: GStreamer: Remote Code Execution via heap-based buffer overflow in JPEG parser
GStreamer JPEG Parser Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. Interaction with this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the implementation.
The specific flaw exists within the processing of Huffman tables. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28840.
A flaw was found in GStreamer. A remote attacker c

Apple today released its typical feature update across it's operating systems (iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, vision OS). With this update, Apple patched 84 different vulnerabilities. Updates are available for the "26" series of operating systems, as well as for the previous "18" version of iOS/iPadOS, and two versions back for macOS (version 14 and 15).
None of the vulnerabilities has been exploited. The number of addressed vulnerabilities is about average compared to similar Apple updates.
Figure: Number of Vulnerabilities patched for each security update. Last one in red at the end.
