CVE-2026-124959
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-pvwj-4565-gq34 ↗EUVD-2026-120081 ↗
description
Spotify Voyager and hnswlib can write beyond a heap buffer while loading a serialized HNSW index with inconsistent size metadata. An attacker may cause an application crash if they can make it load a crafted index file.
mitigation
Do not load HNSW index files from untrusted sources, and restrict who can replace or upload index files. Validate index provenance before deployment and monitor the affected projects for a corrected release.
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
source signals
Public signals that triggered or updated the pipeline. These are inputs for the deltas above.
