Assimp through 6.0.6 contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability in glTFCommon::Util::ParseDataURI caused by storing the data offset in a signed char. Attackers can supply a crafted glTF file with a raw data URI whose segment starts beyond byte 127 to crash applications or leak adjacent heap memory.
