Doc Text:
A flaw was found in NGINX's ngx_http_mp4_module. This Out-of-Bounds Read/Write vulnerability occurs due to improper handling of specially crafted MP4 files. A local authenticated attacker, by supplying a malicious MP4 file, can trigger a buffer over-read or overwrite in worker memory. This can lead to process termination, potentially causing a denial-of-service or, under certain conditions, achieving code execution.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-03-20 11:58:10 UTC
Out-of-Bounds Read/Write vulnerability in the ngx_http_mp4_module of NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus. The flaw is caused by improper handling of specially crafted MP4 files during processing. When such a file is parsed, it can trigger a buffer over-read or overwrite in worker memory, leading to process termination or undefined behavior. This vulnerability can be exploited by a local authenticated attacker capable of supplying a malicious MP4 file, potentially causing denial-of-service or achieving code execution under certain conditions.
