Summary

GPAC through 26.07.0 contains a type confusion vulnerability in drawable_get_aspect_2d_mpeg4() and TraverseShape() that cast a Shape's appearance node to M_Appearance without checking its node tag. An attacker can supply a crafted XMT file placing another node type, such as Conditional, in the appearance field, triggering an invalid memory read and crashing MP4Box.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability can be exploited to cause application crashes (denial of service) when processing malicious media files. The risk affects systems processing untrusted XMT/MP4 files.

Recommendation

Update GPAC to a version containing the fix or restrict processing of untrusted XMT files. Consider running MP4Box in an isolated environment.
