USN-8219-1 (UBUNTU-CVE-2026-32874)
Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2026-04-28 17:32 – Updated: 2026-06-30 15:55 – Source websiteCameron Criswell discovered that UltraJSON contained a memory leak that would occur when parsing large integers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause UltraJSON to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 25.10, and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-32874)
It was discovered that UltraJSON contained integer overflow/underflow issues when calculating how much memory to reserve for indentation in certain instances. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause UltraJSON to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-32875)
