Description SMASH SMASH 2023-09-28 08:15:25 UTC 
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 H265 encoded video files. The
issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied
data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can
leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current
process.

gstreamer-plugins-bad in SUSE:SLE-12:Update is too old which don't have the gsth265parser.c module, So don't need to back port the CVE fix code.
