Summary

CVE-2025-55647 is a medium-severity Integer Overflow or Wraparound (CWE-190) vulnerability in Gpac Gpac. Its CVSS base score is 5.5 (Medium).

Operationally, ranked at the 16th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-6 (Resource Availability) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Enforces validation of MP4 input structures before processing in mp4_mux_cenc_insert_pssh, directly blocking the crafted file that triggers the integer overflow and subsequent OOM.

prevent

Limits the effects of resource-exhaustion attacks by controlling memory allocation during MP4Box file handling, mitigating the DoS outcome of the overflow.

prevent

Applies safeguards to protect against denial-of-service conditions caused by malformed media inputs that exhaust system memory.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require use of safe arithmetic, bounds checks, and testing that prevent integer overflows.

detects

Security testing in development can detect integer overflows before release.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates input validation and arithmetic checks that prevent integer overflows.

degrades

Application security requirements include bounds checking and safe arithmetic to avoid overflow conditions.

degrades

Secure architecture principles require defensive coding patterns that mitigate integer wraparound risks.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe integer operations and mandate overflow-safe constructs.
