CVE-2026-47254

MEDIUMPre-NVD 6.16.1
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 91% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

A fix is available — apply it.

libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. Prior to version 1.22.0, Track::init_sample_timing_table() in libheif/sequences/track.cc stores an out-of-bounds chunk index (m_chunks.size()) into m_presentation_timeline when the number of chunks defined in the stco box is less than the number of samples in stsz. A subsequent call to heif_track_get_next_raw_sequence_sample() reads m_chunks[chunk_idx] with that OOB index, causing a heap-buffer-overflow. Version 1.22.0 fixes the issue.
