What is CVE-2024-47546?

CVE-2024-47546 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Gstreamer Gstreamer, published on 11 Dec 2024. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. An integer underflow has been detected in extract_cc_from_data function within qtdemux.c. In the FOURCC_c708 case, the subtraction atom_length - 8 may result in an underflow if atom_length is less than 8. When that subtraction underflows, *cclen ends up being a large number, and then cclen is passed to g_memdup2 leading to an out-of-bounds (OOB) read. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.

Weakness: CWE-191
