Player crash via zero-size MP4 atom
Published Jul 1, 2026 · Updated Jul 1, 2026
Division by zero in Aleksoid1978 MPC-BE before commit 4341cb3 allows attackers to crash the player via a crafted MP4 file. The MP4 atom parser accepts a zero-size atom, which reaches CStreamSwitcherOutputPin::DecideBufferSize and is used as a divisor. Exploitation requires a user to open or drag and drop the file; the demonstrated consequence is process termination, with no confidentiality or integrity impact.
