Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GStreamer versions prior to 1.22.9

Description This issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of tile list data within AV1-encoded video files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.22.9, update to version 1.22.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of AV1-encoded video files until a patch is available. Avoid using the tile list data parsing functionality in the affected AV1 codec parser until the issue is resolved.
