Security Advisory 2024-0002 (ZDI-CAN-23896, CVE-2024-4453)
Summary Integer overflow in EXIF metadata parser leading to potential heap overwrite
Date 2024-04-29 20:00
Affected Versions GStreamer gst-plugins-base < 1.24.3, gst-plugins-base < 1.22.12
IDs GStreamer-SA-2024-0002
ZDI-CAN-23896
CVE-2024-4453

Details

Heap-based buffer overflow in the EXIF image tag parser when handling certain malformed streams before GStreamer 1.24.3 or 1.22.12.

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-base 1.24.3 and 1.22.12 releases address the issue. People using older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
