Descriptions

GStreamer MXF File Parsing Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. Interaction with this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the implementation. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of MXF video files. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22299.

Vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código Use-After-Free en el análisis de archivos MXF de GStreamer. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de GStreamer. Se requiere la interacción con esta librería para aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad, pero los vectores de ataque pueden variar según la implementación. La falla específica existe en el análisis de archivos de video MXF. El problema surge de la falta de validación de la existencia de un objeto antes de realizar operaciones sobre él. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del proceso actual. Era ZDI-CAN-22299.

A use-after-free flaw was found in the MXF demuxer in GStreamer when handling certain MXF video files. This issue could allow a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the application and may allow code execution.
