CVE-2026-58012

MEDIUM CVSS: 6.5 Published: 2026-06-30 Modified: 2026-08-17

Description

A flaw was found in GLib. A buffer over-read can occur in the g_regex_replace function when used with the `G_REGEX_RAW` compile flag and case-change replacement escapes because the string_append function processes matched substrings using UTF-8 functions that assume valid UTF-8 input, even when the string is treated as raw bytes. This vulnerability can cause a minor information disclosure of 1-5 bytes and a denial of service when the buffer over-read crosses a page boundary.

Affected Platforms

Gnome GlibRedhat Enterprise Linux
