High CVSS 7.5

CVE-2026-71980

NVD analysis in progress

Belledonne Communications bcg729 through 1.1.2 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the decodeSIDframe() function in src/cng.c that allows unauthenticated network-adjacent attackers to trigger a heap read beyond buffer boundaries by sending a zero-length comfort-noise RTP payload. A zero-length payload causes an integer underflow in the uint8_t filter order calculation, which wraps to 255 and is clamped to 10, causing the function to unconditionally read 11 bytes from a zero-byte buffer, resulting in media process termination or silent consumption of adjacent heap memory as reflection coefficients.

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
An out-of-bounds read exposes adjacent memory, often leftover secrets.
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.
