Descriptions

GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. stack-buffer overflow has been detected in the gst_opus_dec_parse_header function within `gstopusdec.c'. The pos array is a stack-allocated buffer of size 64. If n_channels exceeds 64, the for loop will write beyond the boundaries of the pos array. The value written will always be GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_NONE. This bug allows to overwrite the EIP address allocated in the stack. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.

A flaw was found in the GStreamer library. A stack buffer overflow in the Opus decoder can cause crashes for certain input files, potentially allowing a malicious third party to trigger an application crash.

Antonio Morales discovered that GStreamer Base Plugins incorrectly handled certain malformed media files. An attacker could use these issues to cause GStreamer Base Plugins to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
