Cryptx · Cryptx · CVE-2026-41565
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
CryptX versions prior to 0.088 001
**Description**
A stack buffer overflow exists in four AEAD decrypt verify helpers. The XS routines `gcm decrypt verify()`, `ccm decrypt verify()`, `chacha20poly1305 decrypt verify()`, and `eax decrypt verify()` copy a caller-supplied authentication tag into a fixed 144-byte stack buffer (`MAXBLOCKSIZE`) without verifying the length. An attacker-controlled tag exceeding this length can overwrite the stack beyond the buffer.
**Recommendations**
Update to version 0.088 001 or later.
