CVE-2026-124031: GPAC type confusion in drawable_get_aspect_2d_mpeg4 and TraverseShape

CVE-2026-124031 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.5 · Published 2026-11-06

GPAC is a multimedia framework that processes video, audio, and graphical content. A type confusion vulnerability in GPAC through version 26.07.0 allows attackers to supply a specially crafted XMT file that crashes the MP4Box tool, causing a denial of service. While the immediate impact is a crash, this memory safety issue could potentially be exploited for further damage depending on attacker control over the corrupted memory access.

Technologies: Gpac. Vendors: Gpac.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a type confusion flaw in the drawable_get_aspect_2d_mpeg4() and TraverseShape() functions where a Shape's appearance node is unsafely cast to M_Appearance without validating the node's type tag. An attacker can craft an XMT file that places an incompatible node type (such as Conditional) in the appearance field, triggering an invalid memory read. The attack requires providing a malicious XMT file to MP4Box but no authentication or special network conditions.
