Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47538)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47541)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47542)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in ID3v2 parser. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47600)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to crash the application.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the gst-discoverer-1.0 commandline tool. A remote attacker can  trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the application.


5) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47607)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Opus decoder. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


6) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47615)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in the Ogg demuxer. A remote attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


7) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47835)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in LRC subtitle parser. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
