DLA-1770-1 gst-plugins-base1.0 -- LTS security update

Date Reported:

28 Apr 2019

Affected Packages:

gst-plugins-base1.0

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2019-9928.

More information:

The RTSP connection parser in the base GStreamer packages version 1.0, which is a streaming media framework, was vulnerable against an heap-based buffer overflow by sending a longer than allowed session id in a response and including a semicolon to change the maximum length. This could result in a remote code execution.

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.4-2+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your gst-plugins-base1.0 packages.
