| Summary | Use-after-free in matroska demuxing |
|
|
| Date | 2021-03-15 16:00 |
|
|
| Affected Versions | GStreamer gst-plugins-good 1.x <= 1.18.3, 0.10.x > 0.10.8 |

|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## Details
|
|
|
|
GStreamer before 1.18.4 might access already-freed memory in error code paths when demuxing certain malformed Matroska files.
|
|
|
|
## Impact
|
|
|
|
It might be possible for a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the application, but possibly also an arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the target user.
|
|
|
|
## Solution
|
|
|
|
The gst-plugins-good 1.18.4 release addresses the issue. People using older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
