CVE-2025-60483: n/a
A NULL pointer dereference in the gf_ac4_pres_b_4_back_channels_present function (/media_tools/av_parsers.c) of GPAC Project/MP4Box before 26.02.0 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted AC4 file.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from a NULL pointer dereference in the gf_ac4_pres_b_4_back_channels_present function of the GPAC Project's MP4Box media parsing tool prior to version 26.02.0. When processing a crafted AC4 audio file, the function may dereference a NULL pointer, causing the application to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service condition. The issue is specific to local or remote processing of maliciously crafted media files. No official patch or remediation details have been disclosed.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability results in a Denial of Service (DoS) by crashing the MP4Box application when it processes a malicious AC4 file. This could disrupt media processing workflows or services relying on this tool. There is no evidence of code execution or data corruption beyond the DoS impact. No known exploits have been reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, avoid processing untrusted or unauthenticated AC4 files with vulnerable versions of MP4Box. Monitor vendor channels for updates regarding patches or workarounds.
