Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-111136

medium Nessus Plugin ID 366425

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

- libInstPatch through 1.1.7 contains a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the SoundFont 2 loader because ipatch_sf2_gen_is_valid() does not range-check generator IDs before the validity mask test.
Attackers can supply crafted SF2 files with out-of-range pgen or igen generator IDs to write attacker- chosen values past the zone genarray, corrupting heap memory and crashing Swami or other consumers.
(CVE-2026-111136)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
