AI-suggested

If you cannot patch yet, avoid processing untrusted DASH manifests that may omit required AudioChannelConfiguration attributes.

Description

GPAC versions prior to 26.02.0 have a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the function gf_dash_group_get_audio_channels() located in src/media_tools/dash_client.c. This flaw can be triggered by attackers supplying a crafted DASH manifest with an AudioChannelConfiguration element missing the schemeIdUri or value fields, causing applications like MP4Box or GPAC DASH clients to crash and resulting in denial of service.
