"The installed version of nginx is 1.1.19 prior to 1.28.3, or 1.29.x prior to 1.29.7. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities :

  - The 32-bit implementation of NGINX Open Source has a vulnerability in the ngx_http_mp4_module module,
    which might allow an attacker to over-read or over-write NGINX worker memory resulting in its
    termination, using a specially crafted MP4 file. The issue only affects 32-bit NGINX Open Source if it
    is built with the ngx_http_mp4_module module and the mp4 directive is used in the configuration file.
    Additionally, the attack is possible only if an attacker can trigger the processing of a specially
    crafted MP4 file with the ngx_http_mp4_module module. Note: Software versions which have reached End
    of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. (CVE-2026-27784)

  - NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus have a vulnerability in the ngx_http_mp4_module module, which might
    allow an attacker to trigger a buffer over-read or over-write to the NGINX worker memory resulting in
    its termination or possibly code execution, using a specially crafted MP4 file. This issue affects
    NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus if it is built with the ngx_http_mp4_module module and the mp4
    directive is used in the configuration file. Additionally, the attack is possible only if an attacker
    can trigger the processing of a specially crafted MP4 file with the ngx_http_mp4_module module. Note:
    Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
