CVE-2026-18772: CWE-1325 Improperly controlled sequential memory allocation in Samsung Open Source rlottie
CVE-2026-18772 is a medium severity vulnerability in Samsung Open Source rlottie involving improperly controlled sequential memory allocation that can lead to exponential data expansion. It does not impact confidentiality or integrity but can cause a denial of service due to availability impact. There are no known exploits in the wild and no patch information is currently available.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in Samsung Open Source rlottie is classified under CWE-1325 (Improperly Controlled Sequential Memory Allocation) and CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation). It allows an attacker to trigger exponential data expansion through uncontrolled memory allocation sequences, potentially leading to denial of service by exhausting system resources. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5 (medium), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, no confidentiality or integrity impact, and high availability impact.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability can cause denial of service conditions by exhausting memory or system resources due to exponential data expansion. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or patch links are provided, users should monitor Samsung Open Source advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, consider limiting exposure to untrusted inputs that could trigger the vulnerability.
