CVE-2026-41445
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
KissFFT before commit 8a8e66e contains an integer overflow vulnerability in the kiss_fftndr_alloc() function in kiss_fftndr.c where the allocation size calculation dimOther*(dimReal+2)*sizeof(kiss_fft_scalar) overflows signed 32-bit integer arithmetic before being widened to size_t, causing malloc() to allocate an undersized buffer. Attackers can trigger heap buffer overflow by providing crafted dimensions that cause the multiplication to exceed INT_MAX, allowing writes beyond the allocated buffer region when kiss_fftndr() processes the data.

"value": "KissFFT antes del commit 8a8e66e contiene una vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de entero en la función kiss_fftndr_alloc() en kiss_fftndr.c donde el cálculo del tamaño de la asignación dimOther(dimReal+2)sizeof(kiss_fft_scalar) desborda la aritmética de enteros con signo de 32 bits antes de ser ampliado a size_t, lo que provoca que malloc() asigne un búfer subdimensionado. Los atacantes pueden desencadenar un desbordamiento de búfer en el heap al proporcionar dimensiones manipuladas que hacen que la multiplicación exceda INT_MAX, permitiendo escrituras más allá de la región del búfer asignado cuando kiss_fftndr() procesa los datos."
