CVE-2026-40892

PJSIP: Stack buffer overflow in pjsip_auth_create_digest2()

Published Apr 21, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 8.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
PJSIP is a free and open source multimedia communication library written in C. In 2.16 and earlier, a stack buffer overflow exists in pjsip_auth_create_digest2() in PJSIP when using pre-computed digest credentials (PJSIP_CRED_DATA_DIGEST). The function copies credential data using cred_info->data.slen as the length without an upper-bound check, which can overflow the fixed-size ha1 stack buffer (128 bytes) if data.slen exceeds the expected digest string length.
