CVE-2017-5839
First published: Mon Feb 06 2017(Updated: )
The gst_riff_create_audio_caps function in gst-libs/gst/riff/riff-media.c in gst-plugins-base in GStreamer before 1.10.3 does not properly limit recursion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack overflow and crash) via vectors involving nested WAVEFORMATEX.
