CVE-2026-58082: Freebsd

Critical severity, CVSS 9.8. EPSS: 0.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

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 Freebsd: version 14.3 only; version 14.4 only; version 15.0 only; version 15.1 only
