Zlib Ng

First CVE: Jan 16, 2018Active for: 9 yearsTotal CVEs: 5

Zlib Ng is a high-performance compression library maintained as a community fork of the original zlib, embedded across a wide variety of applications and embedded systems where data compression is required. The vendor's narrow product portfolio, exemplified by minizip_ng, reflects its focused role as a foundational component rather than a standalone application, meaning vulnerabilities here propagate downstream to any software that links the library. Current severity, exploitation activity, and exposure counts are shown alongside this summary.
