# Security Advisory 2023-0011 (ZDI-CAN-22300)
<div class="vertical-table">
| | |
| ----------------- | --- |
| Summary | AV1 codec parser buffer overflow |
| Date | 2023-12-18 14:00 |
| Affected Versions | GStreamer gst-plugins-bad < 1.22.8 |
| IDs | GStreamer-SA-2023-0011<br/>ZDI-CAN-22300<br/>CVE-2023-50186 |
</div>
## Details
Heap-based buffer overflow in the AV1 codec parser when handling certain malformed streams before GStreamer 1.22.8
## 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-bad 1.22.8 releases address the issue. People using older branches of GStreamer should apply the patch and recompile.
