CVE-2026-49130
Music Player Daemon < 0.24.11 CRLF Injection via XspfPlaylistPlugin.cxx
Description
Music Player Daemon (MPD) before version 0.24.11 contains a CRLF injection vulnerability in the xspf_char_data function within the XSPF playlist plugin that allows attackers to embed literal CR/LF bytes in URI fields by supplying a malicious XSPF playlist with XML numeric character references. Attackers can inject forged key-value lines through the location field into MPD protocol responses including playlistinfo, currentsong, and listplaylist outputs, as well as the state file writer, by exploiting Expat's decoding of numeric character references prior to the character data callback.

Action Type Old Value New Value Added Translation Title: MPD de MusicPlayerDaemon, Description: Music Player Daemon (MPD) antes de la versión 0.24.11 contiene una vulnerabilidad de inyección CRLF en la función xspf_char_data dentro del plugin de listas de reproducción XSPF que permite a los atacantes incrustar bytes CR/LF literales en campos URI al proporcionar una lista de reproducción XSPF maliciosa con referencias de caracteres numéricos XML. Los atacantes pueden inyectar líneas clave-valor falsificadas a través del campo de ubicación en las respuestas del protocolo MPD, incluyendo las salidas de playlistinfo, currentsong y listplaylist, así como el escritor del archivo de estado, explotando la decodificación de Expat de las referencias de caracteres numéricos antes de la devolución de llamada de datos de caracteres. -
