Description
GPAC versions before 26.02.0 have a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the m2tsdmx_update_sdt() function within the MPEG-2 TS demuxer. This flaw can be triggered by a crafted .ts file containing an invalid service descriptor with NULL service or provider names, causing MP4Box to crash and resulting in denial of service.
