# Security Advisory 2022-0001 (CVE-2022-1921)
<div class="vertical-table">
| | |
| ----------------- | --- |
| Summary | Heap overwrite in avi demuxing |
| Date | 2022-06-15 23:00 |
| Affected Versions | GStreamer gst-plugins-good 1.x < 1.20.3, 0.10.x |
| IDs | GStreamer-SA-2022-0001<br/>CVE-2022-1921 |
</div>
## Details
Heap-based buffer overflow in the avi demuxer when handling certain AVI files in GStreamer versions before 1.20.3.
## Impact
It is possible for a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the application, and possibly also effect code execution through heap manipulation.
## Solution
The gst-plugins-good 1.20.3 release addresses the issue. People using older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
