AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, users should avoid processing untrusted .mtl material files with tinyobjloader-c or apply manual code review and hardening to ensure buffer boundaries are respected. Monitor for vendor updates or patches addressing this issue.

Description

tinyobjloader-c's tinyobj_parse_and_index_mtl_file (tinyobj_loader_c.h) reads each line of a .mtl material file into a fixed 4096-byte stack buffer via memcpy(linebuf, p, p_len), guarded only by . The identical vulnerable pattern is duplicated in a second function in the same file.
