An out-of-memory error in the parseABCNSSET_INFO function of libming v0.4.8 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) due to allocator exhaustion. The vulnerability was discovered and disclosed on March 27, 2025, and affects the libming library version 0.4.8 (NVD, CISA).
The vulnerability occurs in the parseABCNSSET_INFO function when attempting to allocate a large block of memory during the parsing of ABC (ActionScript Bytecode) data. When processing SWF files containing this bytecode, the function fails to properly validate memory allocation requests, which can lead to allocator exhaustion. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (HIGH) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H (NVD).
The successful exploitation of this vulnerability results in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition. When the vulnerable function attempts to process maliciously crafted SWF files, it can exhaust the system's memory resources, leading to service disruption and potential system instability (Github).
The vulnerability affects libming version 0.4.8. Users and administrators are advised to monitor for updates from the vendor for a patched version. In the meantime, implementing input validation for SWF files and monitoring system memory usage can help mitigate the risk (NVD).
