Localsearch: tracker-miners: gnome localsearch mp3 extractor: heap buffer overflow leading to denial of service or information disclosure via malformed mp3 id3 tags

Published Jun 16, 2026 · Updated Jun 16, 2026 · Assigned by fedora

Description

A flaw was found in the GNOME localsearch (previously known as tracker-miners) MP3 Extractor `tracker-extract-mp3` component. A remote attacker could exploit this heap buffer overflow vulnerability by providing a specially crafted MP3 file containing malformed ID3 tags. This incorrect length calculation during the parsing of performer tags can lead to a read beyond the allocated buffer, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) due to a crash or enabling information disclosure.
