CVE-2026-10118: vLLM — HIGH

A flaw was found in Poppler's Splash backend. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious PDF file that, when rendered, triggers an integer overflow in the `tilingPatternFill` function. This overflow leads to an undersized heap memory allocation, allowing a subsequent...

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CVE-2026-10118?

A flaw was found in Poppler's Splash backend. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious PDF file that, when rendered, triggers an integer overflow in the `tilingPatternFill` function. This overflow leads to an undersized heap memory allocation, allowing a subsequent out-of-bounds write. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution, information disclosure, or denial of service within the context of the application processing the PDF.

Is CVE-2026-10118 actively exploited?

No confirmed active exploitation of CVE-2026-10118 has been reported, but organizations should still patch proactively.

How to fix CVE-2026-10118?

No patch is currently available. Monitor vendor advisories for updates.

What is the CVSS score for CVE-2026-10118?

CVE-2026-10118 has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

What are the technical details?

Original Advisory

A flaw was found in Poppler's Splash backend. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious PDF file that, when rendered, triggers an integer overflow in the `tilingPatternFill` function. This overflow leads to an undersized heap memory allocation, allowing a subsequent out-of-bounds write. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution, information disclosure, or denial of service within the context of the application processing the PDF.

Weaknesses (CWE)

CWE-190 Integer Overflow or Wraparound

CWE-190 — Integer Overflow or Wraparound: The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.

[Requirements] Ensure that all protocols are strictly defined, such that all out-of-bounds behavior can be identified simply, and require strict conformance to the protocol.
[Requirements] Use a language that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. If possible, choose a language or compiler that performs automatic bounds checking.
