Description TEJ RATHI 2023-12-14 12:18:41 UTC
Heap-based buffer overflow in the subparse subtitle parser when handling certain SRT subtitle files in GStreamer versions before 1.22.4 / 1.20.7. It is possible for a malicious third party to trigger a crash in the application, and possibly also effect code execution through heap manipulation.
