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 use-after-free in the SocketDescriptor::tcpReadHandler1 function (liveMedia/RTPInterface.cpp) of LIVE555 Streaming Media (version 2026.02.26) allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via sending a series of crafted RTSP and HTTP requests to the server.
