Bug fixes

  • Fix a number of bugs in the CRAM decoder which could result in undefined behaviour on invalid inputs (PR #1981, PR #1991):

    • Not checking the amount of byte array len data returned matched the amount expected. (CVE-2026-31971)
    • Incorrect check for the length of byte array stop data. (CVE-2026-31969)
    • Invalid use of the varint and const codecs. (CVE-2026-31968)
    • Missing check for a valid reference ID. (CVE-2026-31965)
    • Missing check for a valid mate reference ID. (CVE-2026-31967)
    • Incomplete validation of CRAM feature locations. (CVE-2026-31965, CVE-2026-31966)
    • Bugs due to improper handling of records where no sequence or quality values were stored (CVE-2026-31962, CVE-2026-31964)
  • Reject GZI indexes with impossibly-large item counts. (CVE-2026-31970) (PR #1978. Reported by Harrison Green)

  • Prevent the wrong item count from being written to GZI indexes of empty files. (PR #1988. Reported by Matthieu Muffato)

  • Fix invalid behaviour if kmemmem(), kstrstr() or kstrnstr() were called with a zero-length pattern, or if kstrstr() was given a very long input. Also ensure they can never fail by supplying a fallback algorithm that does not allocate any memory. (PR #1980. Reported by Harrison Green)

  • Prevent redundant copies of hash keys in string pools. (PR #1982)

  • Fix regressions in the S3 plugin which caused uploads to fail. (PR #1984)

  • Disallow attempts to set the thread pool attached to an htsFile twice. (PR #1985)

Build Changes

  • The htscodecs submodule is updated to v1.6.6. (PR #1989)
