High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libpulse-binding versions prior to 1.2.1
Description
The issue is related to use-after-free problems with objects returned by the
get format info and get context methods of Stream objects. These objects were mistakenly constructed without setting a flag to prevent the destruction of underlying C objects they reference upon their own destruction. This can cause a use-after-free when get context is called.Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.2.1, update to version 1.2.1 or newer to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the
get format info and get context methods of Stream objects until the update is applied.Fix
Use After Free
