CVE-2026-102804: nothings stb integer overflow in hexwave_init

CVE-2026-102804 · Severity: medium · CVSS 6.5 · Published 2026-09-30

nothings stb is a single-file C library for audio waveform synthesis. An integer overflow in the hexwave_init function allows attackers to craft specially-sized parameters that cause buffer overflows when the library allocates undersized buffers and then writes far beyond their bounds. This can lead to memory corruption and potential code execution if an application exposes the width and oversample parameters to untrusted input.

Technologies: Nothings Stb. Vendors: Nothings.

Technical details

The vulnerability is an integer overflow in stb_hexwave.h's hexwave_init function where multiplying user-controlled width and oversample parameters (line 560) overflows a 32-bit int, resulting in undersized heap or stack buffer allocations. The deinterleave loops (lines 611-612) then write millions of 32-bit values past the end of these buffers without bounds checking. No fix has been released; the project maintainers have not responded to the public disclosure.
