CVE-2025-6052
highpriority · track · 30EPSS 0.005 · 43 %ileDEEUNLRUUSEPSS · scored 2026-10-23
A flaw was found in how GLib’s GString manages memory when adding data to strings. If a string is already very large, combining it with more input can cause a hidden overflow in the size calculation. This makes the system think it has enough memory when it doesn’t. As a result, data may be written past the end of the allocated memory, leading to crashes or memory corruption.
