GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. A stack-buffer overflow has been detected in the vorbis_handle_identification_packet function within gstvorbisdec.c. The position array is a stack-allocated buffer of size 64. If vd->vi.channels exceeds 64, the for loop will write beyond the boundaries of the position array. The value written will always be GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_NONE. This vulnerability allows to overwrite the EIP address allocated in the stack. Additionally, this bug can overwrite the GstAudioInfo info structure. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.

The severity of REDHAT-BUG-2331753 is considered high due to the potential for stack-buffer overflow vulnerabilities.
To fix REDHAT-BUG-2331753, upgrade GStreamer to a patched version later than 1.24.10.
REDHAT-BUG-2331753 affects the GStreamer library, specifically the vorbis_handle_identification_packet function in gstvorbisdec.c.
Yes, if exploited, REDHAT-BUG-2331753 can lead to arbitrary code execution due to stack corruption.
GStreamer versions up to but not including 1.24.10 are vulnerable to REDHAT-BUG-2331753.
