Description
A security vulnerability has been detected in GPAC 26.03-DEV-rev342-g80071f700-master. The impacted element is the function txtin_probe_duration of the file src/filters/load_text.c of the component TeXML File Handler. Such manipulation of the argument txml_timescale leads to divide by zero. An attack has to be approached locally. The name of the patch is 86a5191f2e750c767253e27ed6cfd6d547afebc2. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.

AI Analysis

Impact

The flaw lies in GPAC’s TeXML File Handler where the function txtin_probe_duration processes an argument named txml_timescale. When this value is manipulated to be zero, the code performs a division by zero, causing the program to crash. The crash disables GPAC during the handling of a TeXML file, leading to a service interruption for the user or application that invoked the handler. This failure corresponds to CWE‑369 and reflects improper error handling as described in CWE‑404.

Affected Systems

Only the GPAC build 26.03‑DEV‑rev342‑g80071f700-master is known to be affected; no other vendors or product lines are listed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.8 indicates moderate severity. The EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a low likelihood of exploitation. Because the description states that an attack has to be approached locally, a local attacker must be able to supply a crafted TeXML file with a zero txml_timescale to trigger the divide‑by‑zero error. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the patch referenced by commit 86a5191f2e750c767253e27ed6cfd6d547afebc2 to update GPAC to a fixed build.
  • If GPAC was built from source, rebuild and reinstall it from the updated repository to ensure the fix is applied.
  • Run GPAC with the least privilege necessary and restrict TeXML file input permissions to trusted users to contain any inadvertent local exploitation.
