High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-51244

NVD analysis in progress

schreibfaul1 ESP32-audioI2S 3.4.5 has a buffer overflow vulnerability in UnpackFrameHeader(). Multiple attacker-controlled index parameters are used to access static and heap table arrays without range limitation. Invalid index values lead to out-of-bounds memory writing and heap buffer overflow.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can take the service offline.
Weakness
A stack overflow overwrites the return address, which often leads to code execution.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
