CVE-2025-55398 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. An issue was discovered in mouse07410 asn1c thru 0.9.29 (2025-03-20) - a fork of vlm asn1c. In UPER (Unaligned Packed Encoding Rules), asn1c-generated decoders fail to enforce INTEGER constraints when the bound is positive and exceeds 32 bits in length, potentially allowing incorrect or malicious input to be processed.. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
