Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GPAC Project on Advanced Content library version 1.0.1
Description
The issue is related to integer overflow vulnerabilities in the MPEG-4 decoding functionality. A specially crafted MPEG-4 input can cause an integer overflow due to unchecked addition arithmetic, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow that causes memory corruption. An attacker can trigger this issue by convincing a user to open a malicious video. The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service.

For GPAC Project on Advanced Content library version 1.0.1, consider disabling the MPEG-4 decoding functionality until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to videos from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of triggering the vulnerability.
