An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-19968 exists.\n\nAffected product: Open Asset Import Library Assimp. 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-2026-19968/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19968/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-19968","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19968/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-19968","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-19968","GHSA-jgf7-xq22-j6mv","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-19968"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"3D asset import library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A heap-based buffer overflow in Assimp's 3DGS MDL7 parser allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via crafted files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulDB","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-122","name":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow"},{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"A weakness has been identified in Open Asset Import Library Assimp 17c12da.
