Application crash via bundled heap buffer over-read
Published Mar 5, 2026 · Updated Mar 5, 2026
Vulnerable dependency use in Tokuhiro Matsuno UnQLite 0.06 and earlier leaves applications with a bundled heap-based overflow. The linked upstream flaw makes jx9MemObjStore read four bytes before its allocated operand-stack region while processing a crafted JX9 script. The reproducer requires local script execution, and the Perl binding omits document-store features, so reachability through the binding remains unverified.
