Service interruption via unreleased debugger password buffer
Published Mar 27, 2025 · Updated Mar 27, 2025
Memory leak in libming 0.4.8 allows remote attackers to interrupt service by supplying a crafted SWF file for processing. parseSWF_ENABLEDEBUGGER2 calls readString to allocate the debugger password but does not release the returned buffer after parsing the ENABLEDEBUGGER2 tag. Exploitation requires a user or consuming application to process attacker-supplied SWF content, causing memory consumption that can interrupt service.
