CVE-2024-47599: GHSL-2024-247: Null pointer dereference in gst_jpeg_dec_negotiate in GStreamer - CVE-2024-47599

Published Dec 11, 2024
·
Updated

GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. A null pointer dereference vulnerability has been discovered in the gstjpegdecnegotiate function in gstjpegdec.c. This function does not check for a NULL return value from gstvideodecodersetoutputstate. When this happens, dereferences of the outstate pointer will lead to a null pointer dereference. This vulnerability can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) by triggering a segmentation fault (SEGV). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.
