Description Thomas Leroy 2024-02-01 14:48:57 UTC
Heap-based buffer overflow in the AV1 codec parser when handling certain malformed streams before GStreamer 1.22.9

Impact
It is possible for a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the application, and possibly also effect code execution through heap manipulation.
Threat mitigation

Workarounds
Solution
The gst-plugins-bad 1.22.9 releases address the issue. People using older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
