Vulnerability identifier: #VU94116

CSH Severity: High

CVSS v4: 8.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51794

CWE-ID: CWE-122

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in libavfilter/af_stereowiden.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted media file to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
