Product: GPAC (MP4Box)
Affected: gpac/gpac prior to fix commit
(f87b30611380e4dcd03cd4dd9ac553c0ec336826)
CVE: CVE-2025-55641
CWE: CWE-476 (NULL Pointer Dereference)
CVSS 3.1: 4.3 MEDIUM (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)
Reporter: sigdevel <https://infosec.exchange/@sigdevel>
Description:
When MP4Box imports a crafted MP4 file containing corrupted Sample
Auxiliary Information (SAI) metadata, such as an invalid sai_samples
count, gf_isom_copy_sample_info() in isomedia/isom_write.c does not
sufficiently validate pointers after the SAI merge handling fails.
AddressSanitizer reports a SEGV caused by a READ memory access at
address 0x000000000000, at isomedia/isom_write.c:8164, reached via
gf_import_isomedia_track() while MP4Box imports the crafted track
during a split-size operation.
Crash is reproducible on the current master branch at the time of
discovery. No authentication or special privileges required beyond
ability to provide a crafted file.
Reproduction:
-Build-opts: CC="gcc -fsanitize=address -g" CXX="g++ -fsanitize=address -g" ;
-Command: ./MP4Box -add 13_poc.mp4 -new /dev/null -split-size 500
Asan-log:
==2426338==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000000 (pc
