Description
Exploitable
LIVE555 before 2026.04.22 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in RTSP session command handling that allows attackers to replay valid Session tokens from unauthenticated connections. Attackers who obtain a valid Session token can issue PLAY and TEARDOWN commands from a second TCP connection without authentication, causing server crashes through virtual function call errors or disrupting active streams by terminating victim sessions.
Exploitable
Live555 through 1.08 does not handle Matroska and Ogg files properly. Sending two successive RTSP SETUP commands for the same track causes a Use-After-Free and daemon crash.
Exploitable
Live555 through 1.08 does not handle MPEG-1 or 2 files properly. Sending two successive RTSP SETUP commands for the same track causes a Use-After-Free and daemon crash.
Exploitable
Live555 through 1.08 mishandles huge requests for the same MP3 stream, leading to recursion and s stack-based buffer over-read. An attacker can leverage this to launch a DoS attack.
