Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-08-18 07:28:33 UTC 
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A flaw has been found in Open Asset Import Library Assimp up to 6.0.5. Impacted is the function Assimp::CSMImporter::InternReadFile of the file code/AssetLib/CSM/CSMLoader.cpp of the component CSM File Handler. This manipulation causes heap-based buffer overflow. The attack is restricted to local execution. The exploit has been published and may be used. Patch name: eb84eec580d3f4ba2f0fd87409b7d0744620f11e. Applying a patch is the recommended action to fix this issue.
