REDHAT-BUG-2331754: Buffer Overflow
GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. stack-buffer overflow has been detected in the gstopusdecparseheader function within gstopusdec.c'. The pos array is a stack-allocated buffer of size 64. If nchannels exceeds 64, the for loop will write beyond the boundaries of the pos array. The value written will always be GSTAUDIOCHANNELPOSITIONNONE. This bug allows to overwrite the EIP address allocated in the stack. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.
