CVE-2026-54559
MediumCVSS 6.9Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk44th percentile - higher than 44% of all known CVEs
Summary
In PocketSphinx prior to 5.1.1, the trie language-model loaders in src/lm/ngram_model_trie.c do not adequately validate boundary conditions in ARPA, DMP, and binary format headers, and the acoustic-model loaders in src/mdef.c and src/util/bio.c use sscanf with unbounded string fields. Loading an invalid or malicious model can cause stack or heap buffer overflows and memory corruption.
Risk Assessment
An attacker able to write to a directory selected by POCKETSPHINX_PATH can replace or add a model file, causing buffer overflow and memory corruption, potentially leading to code execution or crash.
Recommendation
Upgrade PocketSphinx to version 5.1.1; users of 5prealpha have no backported patch and must migrate to the fixed release.

- CVE-2026-116790Critical
Prior to 1.11.2, FreeSWITCH's inbound ICE handling accepts every connectivity check without cryptographically validating the STUN MESSAGE-INTEGRITY attribute. A network peer can forge an ICE connectivity check without SDP credentials, nominate its own address, redirect RTP and DTLS traffic, and terminate the legitimate media path, enabling eavesdropping and media injection on unencrypted legs.
- CVE-2026-116785Critical
Prior to 1.11.2, FreeSWITCH's ws_read_frame() decodes a WebSocket frame's 64-bit extended payload length with a 32-bit byte swap and narrows the result into a signed length. A value whose surviving low word becomes negative bypasses the signed size check and is reinterpreted as an enormous unsigned count, causing client bytes to overwrite memory beyond the 64 KiB receive buffer. This can corrupt connection pointers and crash FreeSWITCH, ending all concurrent sessions.
- CVE-2026-116779Critical
Prior to 1.11.3, FreeSWITCH's sofia_presence_handle_sip_i_message() splits the To user of an inbound SIP MESSAGE on a plus sign and treats the left side as a chat protocol selector. Selecting the api chat proto reaches switch_api_execute(), allowing a peer whose MESSAGE was accepted to run FreeSWITCH API commands, including operating-system command sinks, with the daemon's privileges. Exploitation has been observed in the wild.
- CVE-2026-102940Critical
Prior to 8.4.0, OpenEMR's controllers/C_Document.class.php write actions, including move_action_process(), do not verify the caller's access to the source document, current patient and category, or destination patient and category before Document::change_patient() performs the mutation. A low-privilege authenticated user can reassign an arbitrary document to a patient or category the user can access and then retrieve it through the normally protected read path.
- CVE-2026-71550Critical
In SuiteCRM before 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, the workflow controller uses a path-traversal-capable aow_action value in require_once() without constraining the resolved file. An authenticated user with the WorkFlow role can include executable PHP and achieve server-side code execution.
- CVE-2026-123198Critical
LMFDB before commit 01829bd contains a server-side template injection vulnerability in the render_knowl function that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject Jinja expressions via request parameters. Attackers can supply crafted query-string values or 'content' data to /knowledge/render/<ID> to reach Python builtins and execute operating system commands.
- CVE-2026-100358Critical
In SuiteCRM before 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, the Studio Dropdown Editor passes $dropdown_name through html_entity_decode() and writes the result verbatim into a PHP language file under custom/ that is included on later page loads. An administrator can inject persistent PHP that executes as the web-server account.
- CVE-2026-54143Critical
In OpenHuman before version 0.57.13, an attacker able to send messages to a configured external channel can cause the agent to create persistent shell cron jobs without human approval. Command validation also permits leading environment assignments that can redirect allowed commands to executable helpers.
- CVE-2026-54141Critical
In OpenHuman before 0.57.13, a remote direct message received through a configured Yuanbao channel is converted into a generic AgentTurnRequest using the default tool policy without an interactive approval context. ApprovalGate treats missing APPROVAL_CHAT_CONTEXT as a non-interactive turn and allows node_exec to run despite the default Supervised policy requiring approval.
- CVE-2026-119344Critical
Cocos AI in version 0.8.2 and earlier accepts trusted execution environment attestation Evidence when firmware patch levels and software measurements match, without binding the Evidence to an allowed platform owner or unique machine identity and without enforcing revocation. A remote attacker who controls or compromises another platform trusted by the same verifier can substitute valid Evidence from that platform and cause authorization of the wrong platform. The vulnerability is addressed in 0.9.0, but cannot be patched in source code alone since it arises from the confidential computing threat model itself.
Original NVD description (English source)
PocketSphinx is a small speech recognizer. Prior to 5.1.1, the trie language-model loaders in src/lm/ngram_model_trie.c do not adequately validate boundary conditions in ARPA, DMP, and binary format headers, and the acoustic-model loaders in src/mdef.c and src/util/bio.c use sscanf with unbounded string fields. Loading an invalid, corrupted, or malicious language or acoustic model can therefore cause stack or heap buffer overflows and memory corruption. An attacker who can write to a directory selected by POCKETSPHINX_PATH can replace or add a model file that PocketSphinx later loads; users of PocketSphinx 5prealpha have no backported patch and must migrate to the fixed release. This issue is fixed in version 5.1.1.
