CVE-2025-6052 Information

Jun 14, 2025 cve

Description

A flaw was found in how GLib’s GString manages memory when adding data to strings. If a string is already very large combining it with more input can cause a hidden overflow in the size calculation. This makes the system think it has enough memory when it doesn’t. As a result data may be written past the end of the allocated memory leading to crashes or memory corruption.
