CVE-2026-80489— EUC_JISX0213 decoding may hang on crafted input

Quick assessment

Affected
The GNU C Library glibc
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

将精心构造的 EUC_JISX0213 输入转换为 UCS-4 或内部宽字符编码（例如使用 iconv）时，在 GNU C 库 2.3 到 2.44 版本中，可能导致转换器无法取得进展，从而造成调用该功能的应用程序挂起。 某些 EUC_JISX0213 序列会解码为两个码点。如果输出缓冲区仅能容纳第一个码点，转换器会将第二个码点暂存在转换状态中，并返回 E2BIG。然而，在下次调用输出该暂存字符后，转换器并不会清除该待处理字符。随后，转换器会不断输出这个暂存字符，而不再消耗新的输入，导致应用程序在重试转换时陷入无限

Vulnerability Title
EUC_JISX0213 decoding may hang on crafted input
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Converting crafted EUC_JISX0213 input to UCS-4 or the internal wide character encoding, for example with iconv, in the GNU C Library version 2.3 to 2.44 may result in the converter making no progress, causing the calling application to hang. Some EUC_JISX0213 sequences decode to two code points. If the output buffer has room for only the first one, the converter stores the second in the conversion state and returns E2BIG, but it never clears that pending character after emitting it on the next call. The converter then keeps emitting the pending character without consuming further input, so an application that retries the conversion loops forever. The input must be attacker controlled and the application must convert it with an output buffer small enough to split the two code points. Only the EUC_JISX0213 character set is affected, which is not commonly used. The related defect in SHIFT_JISX0213 converter is tracked separately as CVE-2026-77117.
