Focus on gstreamer vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2025, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with gstreamer. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total gstreamer CVEs: 11
Earliest CVE date: 02 Feb 2009, 19:30 UTC
Latest CVE date: 26 Jul 2024, 06:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2024-40897
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 6.28
Max CVSS: 9.3
Critical CVEs (≥9): 4
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 1 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 8 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 3 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 4 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for gstreamer, sorted by severity first and recency.
Stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in orcparse.c of ORC versions prior to 0.4.39. If a developer is tricked to process a specially crafted file with the affected ORC compiler, an arbitrary code may be executed on the developer's build environment. This may lead to compromise of developer machines or CI build environments.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the flx_decode_delta_fli function in gst/flx/gstflxdec.c in the FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) by providing a 'write count' that goes beyond the initialized buffer.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the flx_decode_delta_fli function in gst/flx/gstflxdec.c in the FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) by providing a 'skip count' that goes beyond initialized buffer.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the flx_decode_delta_fli function in gst/flx/gstflxdec.c in the FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via the start_line parameter.
The _parse_pat function in the mpegts parser in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a crafted file.
The gst_mpegts_section_new function in the mpegts decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a too small section.
The windows_icon_typefind function in gst-plugins-base in GStreamer before 1.10.2, when G_SLICE is set to always-malloc, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted ico file.
The gst_decode_chain_free_internal function in the flxdex decoder in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via an invalid file, which triggers an incorrect unref call.
Off-by-one error in the gst_h264_parse_set_caps function in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read.
The FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and crash) via a crafted series of skip and count pairs.
The flx_decode_chunks function in gst/flx/gstflxdec.c in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via a crafted FLIC file.
Multiple integer overflows in the (1) user_info_callback, (2) user_endrow_callback, and (3) gst_pngdec_task functions (ext/libpng/gstpngdec.c) in GStreamer Good Plug-ins (aka gst-plugins-good or gstreamer-plugins-good) 0.10.15 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PNG file, which triggers a buffer overflow.
Array index error in the gst_qtp_trak_handler function in gst/qtdemux/qtdemux.c in GStreamer Plug-ins (aka gstreamer-plugins) 0.6.0 allows remote attackers to have an unknown impact via a crafted QuickTime media file.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the qtdemux_parse_samples function in gst/qtdemux/qtdemux.c in GStreamer Good Plug-ins (aka gst-plugins-good) 0.10.9 through 0.10.11, and GStreamer Plug-ins (aka gstreamer-plugins) 0.8.5, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Time-to-sample (aka stts) atom data in a malformed QuickTime media .mov file.
Array index error in the qtdemux_parse_samples function in gst/qtdemux/qtdemux.c in GStreamer Good Plug-ins (aka gst-plugins-good) 0.10.9 through 0.10.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted Sync Sample (aka stss) atom data in a malformed QuickTime media .mov file, related to "mark keyframes."
Heap-based buffer overflow in the qtdemux_parse_samples function in gst/qtdemux/qtdemux.c in GStreamer Good Plug-ins (aka gst-plugins-good) 0.10.9 through 0.10.11 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Composition Time To Sample (ctts) atom data in a malformed QuickTime media .mov file.
