Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40474)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when parsing MXF video files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted media file to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40475)
