Short explanation
An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in the GStreamer multimedia framework's asfmux plugin due to incorrect buffer size calculations when processing Unicode characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (S0).
This vulnerability can be exploited by processing specially crafted media metadata, potentially leading to a denial of service or limited memory corruption (S0).
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories (S0)
Chain of evidence and sources
GStreamer asfmux eklentisi, temel çok dilli düzlem dışındaki karakterler için arabellek boyutunu yanlış hesaplar (S0).
Bu durum, arabelleğe yazma sırasında yığın bellek sınırları dışına yazma hatasına neden olur (S0).
Show the technical text from the sources
A flaw was found in the GStreamer multimedia framework's ASF muxer plugin (asfmux). When writing string metadata tags containing Unicode characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (such as emoji) to an ASF container, the plugin incorrectly calculates the buffer size needed for the UTF-16LE representation. The size calculation assumes each Unicode code point requires 2 bytes, but non-BMP characters require 4 bytes (surrogate pairs). This leads to a heap out-of-bounds write when the actual UTF-16LE conversion is written into the undersized buffer. An attacker could exploit this by providing media with crafted metadata tags to an application that transcodes or remuxes to ASF format while preserving metadata, potentially causing a denial of service or limited memory corruption.
