  - A vulnerability was identified in Assimp up to 6.0.4. This impacts the function
    Assimp::MDL::HalfLife::HL1MDLLoader::read_animations of the file HL1MDLLoader.cpp of the component Half-
    Life 1 MDL Loader. Such manipulation leads to heap-based buffer overflow. The attack must be carried out
    locally. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The project tagged the reported issue as
    bug. (CVE-2026-10230)
