CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ngx_http_mp4_module module when handling MP4 files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service attack.
