CVE-2026-58082: Stack based buffer overflow in iconv(3)
- Severity: critical (CVSS 9.8 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.5% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2026-08-19 · updated 2026-10-27
- Weakness: CWE-121
Description
The ISO-2022 encoding module used a stack buffer sized to MB_LEN_MAX (6 bytes) for intermediate character output. Some ISO-2022 variants can require up to 10 bytes per character, in which case conversions can trigger a stack buffer overflow of up to four bytes. An application that uses iconv(3) to convert untrusted input to or from one of the affected encodings may be vulnerable to buffer overflows if it uses one of the affected encoding modules.
Affected products
- FreeBSD: 14.3, 14.3-p1, 14.3-p10, 14.3-p11, 14.3-p12, 14.3-p13 (+32)
