Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in the MXF demuxer when parsing crafted VANC packets in an MXF file. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted MXF file to cause a denial of service.
User interaction is required to open or process a crafted MXF file.
2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect buffer operations in the MXF muxer when writing crafted VANC packets in an MXF file. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted MXF file with invalid VANC packet configuration to cause a denial of service.
User interaction is required to open or process a crafted MXF file.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
CVSSv4: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in GstBuffer value deserialization in the GStreamer core library when parsing crafted serialized buffer data with invalid content. A remote attacker can provide specially crafted serialized buffer values to execute arbitrary code.
Successful exploitation may also cause a crash or data corruption.
4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 4.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the MXF demuxer (mxfdemux) when parsing crafted MXF files with reverse temporal offsets in index table segments. A remote attacker can provide a crafted MXF file with invalid temporal offset values to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
User interaction is required to open or process a crafted MXF file.
5) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
CVSSv4: 8.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds write in the H.266/VVC codec parser (gsth266parser) when parsing a crafted H.266/VVC video stream with invalid PPS tile slice configuration. A remote attacker can provide a specially crafted video stream to execute arbitrary code.
The issue can also result in a crash or data corruption.
6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the MOV/MP4 demuxer (qtdemux) when parsing uncompressed video streams in MOV/MP4 files. A remote attacker can provide a crafted MOV/MP4 file with invalid uncompressed video parameters to cause a denial of service.
This affects uncompressed video profiles supported by the uncC box, and user interaction is required to process the crafted file.
7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in the MPEG PES header parser in the mpegdemux element and resindvd PES filter when parsing malformed MPEG Program Stream files. A remote attacker can trick the victim into processing a specially crafted MPEG Program Stream file to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
8) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53702)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in the H.265 parser when parsing buffering period SEI messages in a crafted H.265 media file. A remote attacker can provide a specially crafted H.265 media file to cause a denial of service.
User interaction is required to process the crafted media file.
