Report: CVE-2026-33165 - heap out-of-bounds write in libde265 1.0.16

CVE ID :CVE-2026-33165 Published : March 20, 2026, 9:17 p.m. | 1 hour, 7 minutes ago Description :libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Prior to version 1.0.17, a crafted HEVC bitstream causes an out-of-bounds heap write confirmed by AddressSanitizer. The trigger is a stale ctb_info.log2unitSize after an SPS change where PicWidthInCtbsY and PicHeightInCtbsY stay constant but Log2CtbSizeY changes, causing set_SliceHeaderIndex to index past the allocated image metadata array and write 2 bytes past the end of a heap allocation. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.17. Severity: 5.5 | MEDIUM Visit the link for more details, such as CVSS details, affected products, timeline, and more...
