Discussion

GStreamer gst-plugins-good 'gstpngdec.c' PNG Output Buffer Integer Overflow Vulnerability

GStreamer 'gst-plugins-good' is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data before using it to allocate memory buffers.

Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied code to run in the context of the user running the affected application. Failed attacks will result in denial-of-service conditions.

This issue affects gst-plugins-good 0.10.15; other versions may also be affected.
