Application crash via unchecked MP4 container length
Published Dec 11, 2024 · Updated Nov 3, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in GStreamer gst-plugins-good before 1.24.10 allows local users to crash applications via crafted MP4/MOV files. In qtdemux.c, qtdemux_parse_node accepts an unchecked length that moves end beyond the input buffer, and qtdemux_parse_container then reads to that invalid boundary. Processing a malicious media file through the MP4/MOV demuxer is required; the read can traverse up to 4 GB of process memory or terminate the consuming application.
