What is CVE-2026-88355?

CVE-2026-88355 is a high-severity vulnerability in n/a, published on 24 Sep 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

An incorrect buffer size calculation vulnerability exists in tinyexpr commit 4a7456e in new_expr(). For arity-0 expression nodes, including constants, variables, and zero-argument functions, the function allocates less memory than sizeof(te_expr) but treats the returned allocation as a complete te_expr object. This results in undefined behavior and can cause deterministic process termination in UBSan-instrumented builds.
