Descriptions

The gst_ps_demux_parse_psm function in gst/mpegdemux/gstmpegdemux.c in gst-plugins-bad in GStreamer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via vectors involving PSM parsing.

La función gst_ps_demux_parse_psm en gst/mpegdemux/gstmpegdemux.c en gst-plugins-bad en GStreamer permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (lectura de memoria no válida y caída) a través de vectores que implican análisis PSM.

GStreamer is a streaming media framework based on graphs of filters which operate on media data. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: clutter-gst2, gnome-video-effects, gstreamer1, gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free, gstreamer1-plugins-base, gstreamer1-plugins-good, orc. Security Fix: Multiple flaws were found in gstreamer1, gstreamer1-plugins-base, gstreamer1-plugins-good, and gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free packages. An attacker could potentially use these flaws to crash applications which use the GStreamer framework.
