Zserio: Integer Overflow in BitStreamReader on 32-bit platforms

Published Apr 24, 2026 · Updated Apr 27, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Zserio is a framework for serializing structured data with a compact and efficient way with low overhead. Prior to 2.18.1, in BitStreamReader.h readBytes() / readString(), the setBitPosition() bounds check receives the overflowed value and is completely bypassed. The code then reads len bytes (512 MB) from a buffer that is only a few bytes long, causing a segmentation fault. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.18.1.
