CVE-2026-129114
JSON::XS versions from 3.04 before 4.05 for Perl write one byte past a heap buffer when appending a one-byte chunk in incr_parse
Description
JSON::XS versions from 3.04 before 4.05 for Perl write one byte past a heap buffer when appending a one-byte chunk in incr_parse. The incremental buffer grows to one and a half times the length it must hold, with no room reserved for the terminating NUL. For an empty buffer and a one-byte chunk that request is one byte, which a buffer whose front was removed by earlier decodes can already have, so nothing is reallocated and the NUL lands one byte past the allocation. A peer streaming data to an incr_parse consumer, choosing how the input is split into reads, can cause a one-byte heap out-of-bounds write.
