CVE-2025-45332: Null Pointer Dereference Vulnerability in vkoskiv c-ray 1.1

Overview

The CVE-2025-45332 vulnerability pertains to a Null Pointer Dereference (NPD) in vkoskiv c-ray 1.1. This vulnerability affects systems running the c-ray 1.1 software, potentially causing system compromise or data leakage. The vulnerability allows an attacker to cause segmentation faults and program crashes, thereby disrupting the integrity of the targeted system.

How the Exploit Works

The CVE-2025-45332 exploit takes advantage of a Null Pointer Dereference (NPD) vulnerability in the parse_mtllib function of the c-ray 1.1 data processing module. The vulnerability arises when the function attempts to access memory that has not been properly initialized or that has been deleted. This causes the program to behave unpredictably, leading to segmentation faults and causing the program to crash.

Conceptual Example Code

A potential example of how this vulnerability might be exploited could be an attacker sending an improperly formatted data packet to the c-ray software. This could be illustrated as follows:

POST /c-ray/process_data HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "malformed_data": "..." }

Where “malformed_data” contains the payload that causes the Null Pointer Dereference, triggering the vulnerability. The exact nature of the payload would depend on the specific implementation of the parse_mtllib function within the c-ray 1.1 software.
