CVE-2017-5841
HighSummary
The gst_avi_demux_parse_ncdt function in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before version 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read) via vectors involving ncdt tags.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to crash the application, potentially leading to service unavailability for users.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update GStreamer to version 1.10.3 or later to mitigate this vulnerability.
Other vulnerabilities in GStreamer, gst-plugins-good
See all- CVE-2026-119843Medium
A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good package. The FLV media demuxer does not properly validate buffer sizes and data availability when processing enhanced audio and video tags in malformed or truncated FLV streams. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted FLV media file that, when opened or streamed by a GStreamer-based application, triggers an assertion failure or a process crash, leading to denial of service.
- CVE-2026-46472High
An issue was discovered in GStreamer gst-plugins-good before 1.28.2. While parsing an MP4 file, the isomp4 plugin's qtdemux_parse_chnl function may read past the end of a global array, potentially leading to information disclosure.
- CVE-2017-5845High
The gst_avi_demux_parse_ncdt function in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before version 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via invalid memory reads, leading to crashes.
- CVE-2016-10199High
The qtdemux_tag_add_str_full function in gst/isomp4/qtdemux.c in GStreamer before version 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via a crafted tag value.
- CVE-2026-46471Medium
An issue was discovered in GStreamer gst-plugins-good before 1.28.2. While parsing an MP4 file, the isomp4 plugin's qtdemux_parse_uuid function may read past the end of a heap-allocated buffer, allowing an attacker to disclose heap memory contents.
- CVE-2026-18649High
In the GStreamer gst-plugins-good package, the rtph264depay and rtph265depay RTP depayloader elements do not enforce a maximum size limit on the reassembly buffer during fragmented RTP packet processing. A remote attacker can send a continuous stream of RTP fragments without end-of-fragment markers, causing the buffer to grow unbounded until memory exhaustion.
- CVE-2026-46470Medium
Vulnerability in GStreamer gst-plugins-good before 1.28.2. When parsing MP4 audio tracks, the isomp4 plugin's qtdemux_audio_caps function does not sufficiently validate atom data before performing division operations, leading to denial of service due to integer division by zero.
- CVE-2026-46469Medium
An issue was discovered in GStreamer gst-plugins-good before 1.28.2. When parsing MP4 audio tracks, the isomp4 plugin's qtdemux_parse_trak function does not sufficiently validate atom data before performing division operations, leading to denial of service due to integer division by zero.
