CVE-2026-111142 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Zziplib through 0.13.80 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in zzip/mmapped.c that allows attackers to over-read heap memory via a crafted ZIP central directory. Attackers can craft an end-of-central-directory record placing the first entry near the buffer end, causing zzip_disk_entry_strdup_name to read past the buffer and crash the application.. EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
