USN-7913-1: MAME vulnerabilities

Ubuntu • December 4, 2025

It was discovered that the stb library, included in MAME, had a heap-based buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program or execute arbitrary code. ( CVE-2018-16981 ) It was discovered that the tinyexr library, included in MAME, had a heap- based buffer over-read in the function DecodePixelData. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information or crash the program. ( CVE-2022-34300 ) It was discovered that the expat library, included in MAME, had an integer-overflow in the function doProlog. An attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program or execute arbitrary code. ( CVE-2021-46143 )

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu Pro provides ten-year security coverage to 25,000+ packages in Main and Universe repositories, and it is free for up to five machines.
