Off-by-One Error in GLib Affects Alignment Padding Checks
CVE-2026-58010

6.5MEDIUM

What is CVE-2026-58010?

A critical flaw exists in GLib due to an off-by-one error in the gvs_tuple_is_normal function. This error arises during the alignment padding checks, where the bounds verification incorrectly uses > instead of >=. As a result, this can lead to an out-of-bounds read, potentially revealing an additional byte of information and leading to a denial of service, especially if the read operation crosses a page boundary.
