Assimp Library: Remote Code Execution Risk from Malformed File
OESA-2026-1543
Summary
The Assimp library, used to load 3D models, has been updated to fix two security issues. One allows an attacker to read sensitive data from a 3D model, while the other could potentially allow them to execute malicious code on your system. To protect your system, update to the latest version of the library.
What to do
- Update assimp to version 5.3.1-17.oe2403sp3.
