GStreamer is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds write that can lead to remote code execution due to improper validation of user-supplied data when parsing MRF files. Attackers must trick users into visiting a malicious page or opening a compromised file to exploit this flaw, potentially allowing them to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected process. Organizations using GStreamer should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of exploitation.

Original NVD Description

GStreamer MRF File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of MRF files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-29510.
