From 6c461e90bc1eedce4b7e414d34c8a8a9162359b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Sebastian=20Dr=C3=B6ge?= Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2021 11:31:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] matroskademux: Initialize track context out parameter to NULL before parsing Various error return paths don't set it to NULL and callers are only checking if the pointer is NULL. As it's allocated on the stack this usually contains random stack memory, and more often than not the memory of a previously parsed track. This then causes all kinds of memory corruptions further down the line. Thanks to Natalie Silvanovich for reporting.
