CVE-2024-47546: GHSL-2024-243: Integer underflow in extract_cc_from_data leading to OOB-read in GStreamer - CVE-2024-47546

Published Dec 11, 2024
·
Updated

GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. An integer underflow has been detected in extractccfromdata function within qtdemux.c. In the FOURCCc708 case, the subtraction atomlength - 8 may result in an underflow if atomlength is less than 8. When that subtraction underflows, cclen ends up being a large number, and then cclen is passed to gmemdup2 leading to an out-of-bounds (OOB) read. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.
