CVE-2026-17072

Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in the gst_mini_object_unref, gst_tag_list_unref, and gst_mxf_demux_update_essence_tracks functions in GStreamer before 1.10.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors involving stream tags.

The qtdemux_parse_samples 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 heap read) via vectors involving the current stts index.

The gst_date_time_new_from_iso8601_string function in GStreamer before version 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed datetime string, leading to an out-of-bounds heap read.

The ROM mappings in the NSF decoder in gstreamer 0.10.x allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read or write) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted NSF music file.

The vmnc decoder in gstreamer does not initialize the render canvas, allowing remote attackers to obtain sensitive information. This is demonstrated by thumbnailing a simple 1 frame vmnc movie that does not draw to the allocated render canvas.

Integer overflow in the vmnc decoder in gstreamer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via large width and height values, which triggers a buffer overflow.

Off-by-one error in the gst_h264_parse_set_caps function in GStreamer before version 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted file, leading to an out-of-bounds read.

The FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and crash) via a crafted series of skip and count pairs.

A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good isomp4 plugin. When processing a specially crafted MP4 or MOV file containing CEA-608 closed-caption data, an integer overflow in 32-bit unsigned arithmetic can bypass a bounds check in the caption parser. This leads to an out-of-bounds heap read of up to 244 bytes, which is then included in the downstream caption output. An attacker could exploit this by tricking a user into opening a malicious media file, potentially resulting in disclosure of adjacent heap memory or application crash.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in GStreamer's RTSP support library. The vulnerability occurs while parsing an Authorization or WWW-Authenticate header that uses Digest authentication. Specially crafted whitespace placement around a parameter's terminator can cause an internal length calculation to underflow, leading to a crash of the process parsing the header. On an RTSP server this can be triggered by a remote, unauthenticated attacker sending a single malformed request when the server has authentication enabled; the same flaw can also be triggered against an RTSP client by a malicious or compromised RTSP server. Successful exploitation results in a denial of service (application crash) and has no confirmed impact on confidentiality or integrity.
