An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-51602 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: VideoLAN VLC media player. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-51602/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-51602/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-51602","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-51602/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-51602","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2025-51602","DLA-4507-1","DSA-6082-1","GHSA-5fj6-q8x2-56g8","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-51602"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VLC media player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in VLC media player by sending a crafted response from an MMS server, triggering an out-of-bounds read.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"mmstu.c in VideoLAN VLC media player before 3.0.22 allows an out-of-bounds read and denial of service via a crafted 0x01 response from an MMS server.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in VLC media player","id":"CVE-2025-51602","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-51605"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Server-side request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-51591"},"products":["VLC media player"],"published":"2026-01-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-03-23","vendors":["VideoLAN"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in VLC media player by sending a crafted response from an MMS server, triggering an out-of-bounds read.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-51602/"}
