It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-22801 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Libpng Libpng. 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-2026-22801/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22801/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-22801","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22801/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-22801","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2026-22801","AZL-74264","AZL-74283","AZL-74499","AZL-74502","AZL-74505","AZL-74508","BELL-CVE-2026-22801","CLEANSTART-2026-CB66472","CLSA-2026-1771001650","CLSA-2026-1771002358","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-22801","ECHO-ce32-3079-d836","GHSA-vgjq-8cw5-ggw8","JLSEC-2026-8","MINI-gfw4-x64m-5hmp","ROOT-OS-ALPINE-315-CVE-2026-22801","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-22801"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"libpng image library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An integer truncation in libpng's simplified write API allows heap buffer over-reads when processing images with specific negative or large row strides.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"libpng","vendor":"libpng"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-190","name":"Integer Overflow or Wraparound"},{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable Network Graphics) raster image files.
