CVE-2026-31966 HTSlib CRAM reader has out-of-bounds read due to improper validation of input

HTSlib is a library for reading and writing bioinformatics file formats. CRAM is a compressed format which stores DNA sequence alignment data. As one method of removing redundant data, CRAM uses reference-based compression so that instead of storing the full sequence for each alignment record it...

CVE-2026-31966

CVE-2026-31966 affects HTSlib’s CRAM reader. The vulnerability stems from insufficient validation of the feature data series in cram_decode_seq(), allowing data to be copied from before the start or after the end of the stored reference into output buffers or the SAM MD tag. This can lead to info...

CVE-2026-31965

In HTSlib, the vulnerability (CVE-2026-31965) affects the CRAM decoding path, specifically cram_decode_slice() where reference-id validation occurs too late. This permits two out-of-bounds reads and may leak two values to the caller; the program may also crash from invalid memory access. Fixed ve...
