CVE-2024-47607

Application crash via unchecked Opus channel count

Published Dec 11, 2024 · Updated Nov 3, 2025

Stack-based buffer overflow in GStreamer gst-plugins-base before 1.24.10 allows attackers to crash applications via crafted Opus audio. In gst_opus_dec_parse_header in gstopusdec.c, an unbounded loop uses an attacker-controlled channel count to write beyond the 64-entry pos stack array. The application must decode a crafted Opus header; the documented consequence is stack-control-data corruption and an application crash.
