libsmpp34: Out-of-bounds Read

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-75895 is a high-severity out-of-bounds read vulnerability in libsmpp34 from Osmocom, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 1.14.5 as the first without the flaw, so updating libsmpp34 to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update libsmpp34 to 1.14.5 or a later version.
  2. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

The underlying weakness: Out-of-bounds Read

The product reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use a language that provides appropriate memory abstractions.
