A use-after-free in the SocketDescriptor::tcpReadHandler1 function (liveMedia/RTPInterface.cpp) of LIVE555 Streaming Media (version 2026.02.26) allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via sending a series of crafted RTSP and HTTP requests to the server.

Hikvision Streaming Media Management Server Default Credentials and Authenticated Arbitrary File Read

Hikvision Streaming Media Management Server v2.3.5 uses default credentials that allow remote attackers to authenticate and access restricted functionality. After authenticating with these credentials, an attacker can exploit an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the /systemLog/downFile.php endpoint via directory traversal in the fileName parameter. This exploit chain can enable unauthorized access to sensitive system files.

A buffer overflow in the getSideInfo2() function of Live555 Streaming Media v2018.09.02 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted MP3 stream.

A use-after-free in the ADTSAudioFileSource::samplingFrequency() function of Live555 Streaming Media v2018.09.02 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted ADTS/AAC file.

A heap overflow in the MatroskaFile::createRTPSinkForTrackNumber() function of Live555 Streaming Media v2018.09.02 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted MKV file.

A NULL pointer dereference in the ADTSAudioFileServerMediaSubsession::createNewRTPSink() function of Live555 Streaming Media v2018.09.02 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted ADTS file.

A use-after-free in the MPEG1or2Demux::newElementaryStream() function of Live555 Streaming Media v2018.09.02 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted MPEG Program stream.

The parseRTSPRequestString function in Live Networks Live555 Streaming Media 2011.08.13 through 2013.11.25, as used in VideoLAN VLC Media Player, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a (1) space or (2) tab character at the beginning of an RTSP message, which triggers an integer underflow, infinite loop, and buffer overflow.

The parseRTSPRequestString function in Live Networks Live555 Streaming Media 2013.11.26, as used in VideoLAN VLC Media Player, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a space character at the beginning of an RTSP message, which triggers an integer underflow, infinite loop, and buffer overflow. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-6933.

Vulnerability in the AC3AudioFileServerMediaSubsession, ADTSAudioFileServerMediaSubsession, and AMRAudioFileServerMediaSubsessionLive OnDemandServerMediaSubsession subclasses in Networks LIVE555 Streaming Media before 2021.3.16.

In Live555 before 2019.02.27, malformed headers lead to invalid memory access in the parseAuthorizationHeader function.

In Live555 0.95, there is a buffer overflow via a large integer in a Content-Length HTTP header because handleRequestBytes has an unrestricted memmove.

In Live555 0.95, a setup packet can cause a memory leak leading to DoS because, when there are multiple instances of a single field (username, realm, nonce, uri, or response), only the last instance can ever be freed.

liblivemedia in Live555 before 2019.02.03 mishandles the termination of an RTSP stream after RTP/RTCP-over-RTSP has been set up, which could lead to a Use-After-Free error that causes the RTSP server to crash (Segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

Live555 before 2019.08.16 has a Use-After-Free because GenericMediaServer::createNewClientSessionWithId can generate the same client session ID in succession, which is mishandled by the MPEG1or2 and Matroska file demultiplexors.
