Security Advisory 2021-0002
Summary Use-after-free in matroska demuxing
Date 2021-03-15 16:00
Affected Versions GStreamer gst-plugins-good 1.x <= 1.18.3, 0.10.x >
0.10.8
ID GStreamer-SA-2021-0002
Details
GStreamer before 1.18.4 might access already-freed memory in error code
paths when demuxing certain malformed Matroska files.
Impact
It might be possible for a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the
application, but possibly also an arbitrary code execution with the
privileges of the target user.
Threat mitigation
Workarounds
Solution
The gst-plugins-good 1.18.4 release addresses the issue. People using
older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
