Summary

CVE-2026-41416 is a high-severity Integer Overflow or Wraparound (CWE-190) vulnerability in Teluu Pjsip. Its CVSS base score is 8.1 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 20th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

CVE-2026-41416 is an integer overflow vulnerability (CWE-190) in the PJSIP multimedia communication library, a free and open-source C library used for VoIP and other real-time communication applications. The issue affects versions 2.16 and earlier, occurring during media stream buffer size calculation when processing Session Description Protocol (SDP) messages with asymmetric ptime configurations. This overflow leads to an undersized buffer allocation, potentially causing unexpected application termination or memory corruption. The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), indicating high severity primarily due to availability impact.

Remote, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted SDP messages to a vulnerable PJSIP-based application over the network. No user interaction or privileges are required, and exploitation requires low complexity. Successful attacks can trigger denial-of-service through application crashes or, in some cases, memory corruption, potentially enabling further compromise depending on the application's context and memory safety mitigations.

The PJSIP project addressed this vulnerability in version 2.17, with the fixing commit available at https://github.com/pjsip/pjproject/commit/66fe416c96e957417621b7be16e9e587d159f9bb. Additional details are provided in the project's security advisory at https://github.com/pjsip/pjproject/security/advisories/GHSA-f33g-8hjq-62xr, recommending immediate upgrades to the patched version for affected deployments.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation (static analysis, fuzzing, unit tests) directly finds integer overflow defects before deployment.

Secure engineering principles require use of safe arithmetic constructs or language features that structurally eliminate integer overflow during calculation.

Input validation enforces bounds on values before arithmetic, stopping the conditions that trigger overflow or wraparound.
