Description

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the GStreamer gst-plugins-good1.0 package, specifically in the rtpqdm2depay element. The flaw is due to improper validation of user-supplied data when parsing the packetid element of X-QDM RTP payloads, leading to an out-of-bounds write. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current process. Multiple versions of gst-plugins-good1.0 prior to fixed releases are affected. A high-severity CVSS 3.0 score of 8.8 reflects the critical impact of this vulnerability.
