An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in Cubism Core within Live2D Cubism Editor version 4.2.03. The vulnerability is triggered when the application processes a maliciously crafted MOC3 file containing a malformed Section Offset Table or Count Info Table, leading to memory corruption.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (PoC) denial-of-service (DoS) exploit targeting applications that use the Live2D Cubism Core library to load MOC3 model files. The exploit is delivered as a specially crafted MOC3 file (referenced as 'exploit.moc3'), which, when loaded by a vulnerable application (such as Live2D Cubism Viewer or VTube Studio), causes an out-of-bounds memory write and crashes the application. The repository includes pattern files (src/moc3.hexpat and src/cmo3.hexpat) for use with the ImHex hex editor, allowing researchers to inspect and modify MOC3 and CAFF file formats. Several JSON files define the structure of the model and its associated data, but the actual exploit payload is the MOC3 file itself, which is not included in the repository but is referenced in the documentation. The purpose of the repository is to demonstrate the security weakness in the Live2D Cubism Core library and to encourage improved security practices. No code execution is achieved by this PoC, but the documentation notes that code execution may be possible with further research. The attack vector is local, requiring the victim to open the malicious file in a vulnerable application.
