Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 23 Mar 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 1 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

A security update to exiv2 version 0.28.8 is available that addresses all listed vulnerabilities. Users and administrators should apply this update promptly to mitigate the risks. No additional vendor advisories indicate that no action is required or that these issues are already mitigated by other means.

Description

This security update for exiv2 addresses multiple vulnerabilities including out-of-bounds reads, denial of service, heap buffer overflow, integer overflow, and performance degradation issues. The update corresponds to exiv2 version 0.28.8 and fixes several CVEs ranging from 2024 to 2026. These vulnerabilities affect various components such as QuickTimeVideo, AsfVideo, EpsImage, ICC profile parsing, CrwMap, and LoaderNative. The issues could lead to crashes, memory corruption, or denial of service when processing crafted image or video files.

Impact

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could lead to application crashes, denial of service, memory corruption, or potential exposure of sensitive data due to out-of-bounds reads and heap buffer overflows. The performance degradation vulnerability could also be exploited to cause resource exhaustion. No known exploits in the wild have been reported at this time.

Summary

The exiv2 update to version 0.28.8 fixes multiple security issues: CVE-2024-24826 and CVE-2024-39695 are out-of-bounds reads in QuickTimeVideo and AsfVideo components respectively; CVE-2024-25112 is a denial of service caused by unbounded recursion in QuickTimeVideo; CVE-2025-26623 and CVE-2025-54080 involve heap buffer overflow and out-of-bounds read when writing metadata into crafted image files; CVE-2025-55304 is a quadratic performance issue in ICC profile parsing; CVE-2026-25884 and CVE-2026-27596 are out-of-bounds reads due to integer overflow and decoding errors; CVE-2026-27631 causes crashes from uncaught exceptions when creating oversized vectors. These vulnerabilities collectively impact the security and stability of exiv2 when handling maliciously crafted media files.
