Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for igmpproxy.

CVE-2025-50681[0]:
| igmpproxy 0.4 before commit 2b30c36 allows remote attackers to cause
| a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted IGMPv3
| membership report packet with a malicious source address. Due to
| insufficient validation in the `recv_igmp()` function in
| src/igmpproxy.c, an invalid group record type can trigger a NULL
| pointer dereference when logging the address using `inet_fmtsrc()`.
| This vulnerability can be exploited by sending malformed multicast
| traffic to a host running igmpproxy, leading to a crash. igmpproxy
| is used in various embedded networking environments and consumer-
| grade IoT devices (such as home routers and media gateways) to
| handle multicast traffic for IPTV and other streaming services.
| Affected devices that rely on unpatched versions of igmpproxy may be
| vulnerable to remote denial-of-service attacks across a LAN .


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
