VLC Media Player Flaws Let Attackers Corrupt Memory and Leak Sensitive Data

VLC 3.0.0-3.0.23 has two flaws: a heap out-of-bounds write via malicious PNGs (CVE-2026-56711) and an out-of-bounds read via hostile RealRTSP servers.

CVE-2026-56711 is a heap out-of-bounds write (CVSS v4 8.6) caused by an integer overflow in VLC's AllocatePicture routine when processing PNG images with exceptionally large IHDR width and height values, allowing writes past the allocated buffer; it maps to CWE-190 and CWE-787 and was credited to Fabian Wahle of Hap Security. CVE-2026-73324 is a medium-severity out-of-bounds read (CVSS v4 6.9) in VLC's RealRTSP handling, where RtspReadLine copies response lines longer than 4,096 bytes into a fixed buffer without null termination, potentially leaking heap data back to a hostile RTSP server via the Session header. Both bugs affect VLC 3.0.0 through 3.0.23, and updated builds had not yet been released at the time of disclosure.

Apple Xcode Integer Underflow Flaw Lets Crafted Archives Leak Memory and Crash Builds

Researchers disclosed an integer underflow in Apple's Mach-O archive parser that lets crafted static libraries crash Xcode builds or leak process memory.

SecureLayer7 disclosed an integer underflow in the mach_o::Archive::Entry::name() function in Apple's open-source dyld project, reported to Apple Product Security on May 23, 2026, with no public patch after more than 90 days. Crafted static archives (.a files) cause the parser's unsigned index to wrap to SIZE_MAX, producing SIGSEGV crashes in the ld-prime linker, out-of-bounds reads that may print adjacent memory to stderr, or SIGABRT in libtool and ranlib. The modern parser is used by ld-prime, the default linker for arm64, arm64e, and x86_64 since Xcode 15, while legacy ld-classic is unaffected. Crafted archives need only be processed, creating supply-chain risk via vendored SDKs, binary dependencies, and CI pipelines.

FortiPAM Chrome Extension Vulnerability Lets Malicious Sites Control Browser Proxy and Record Tabs

Fortinet patched CVE-2026-84388 (CVSS 9.1) in its FortiPAM Chrome extension, letting malicious websites alter proxy settings, open tabs and record sessions.

The Fortinet FortiPAM Chrome extension flaw (CVE-2026-84388, CVSS 9.1) lets attacker-controlled domains be trusted as FortiPAM servers because a webRequest listener adds requested hostnames without verifying the initiator. A second issue exposes the extension's message interface to all URLs and accepts non-JWT tokens without validation, enabling unauthenticated session launches, proxy manipulation, tab control and recording; the consent dialog can also be bypassed via shadow-root clicks. Fortinet issued advisory FG-IR-26-168 after a July 17 report and released a fix on August 1, 2026, with no confirmed exploitation in the wild.
