CVE-2025-70116 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. A NULL pointer dereference in GPAC MP4Box: when parsing certain truncated MP4 files, an unknown/invalid stsd entry can result in missing descriptor fields (e.g., codec/mime/profile strings). gf_media_map_esd then calls strlen() on a NULL pointer, triggering a crash (ASan SEGV).. EPSS estimates a 0.41% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
