Vulnerability description

DayBreach CVE AI Research

CVE-2026-14164 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.

A double free issue has been identified in libarchive's RAR5 reader. During parsing of a specially crafted RAR5 archive, the filtered_buf pointer may remain stale after being freed during unpacking state reinitialization. Subsequent processing of another archive entry can trigger a second free of the same memory region, resulting in a double-free condition. Successful exploitation may cause applications using the vulnerable libarchive API to terminate unexpectedly, leading to a denial of service.
