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.
