Description

Two security vulnerabilities have been identified in the gstreamer1-plugins-good package used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. These include an unsigned integer underflow in avidemux FUJIFILM strd parsing leading to out-of-bounds read/write (CVE-2026-73433) and an out-of-bounds read in avidemux vprp video field descriptor parsing (CVE-2026-73434). Red Hat has issued a security update to address these issues, rated as having moderate impact. The vulnerabilities could potentially lead to memory corruption due to improper bounds checking. The update is available for multiple architectures and variants of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

Technical Analysis

The gstreamer1-plugins-good package for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 contains two vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-73433 is an unsigned integer underflow in avidemux FUJIFILM strd parsing that can cause out-of-bounds read/write operations. CVE-2026-73434 is an out-of-bounds read in avidemux vprp video field descriptor parsing. Both vulnerabilities relate to improper bounds checking in media parsing components of the GStreamer framework. Red Hat has issued a security advisory RHSA-2026:55436 providing updates that fix these issues.

Potential Impact

These vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to cause out-of-bounds memory access during media parsing, potentially leading to application crashes or other undefined behavior. The security impact is rated as Moderate by Red Hat. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Mitigation Recommendations

Red Hat has released updated gstreamer1-plugins-good packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 that address these vulnerabilities. Users should apply the security update as described in Red Hat advisory RHSA-2026:55436 and the referenced update article (https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258). No additional mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor.
