"It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-3276 advisory.
A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good. A heap-based out-of-bounds read of 4 bytes can occur
when parsing FLAC audio stream headers embedded in a Matroska or WebM container file. The vulnerability is
triggered by a boundary check that does not account for the full size of the data being copied, allowing a
small read past the end of the allocated buffer. An attacker could exploit this by crafting a malicious
Matroska or WebM file and tricking a user into opening it, potentially leaking a small amount of adjacent
heap memory. (CVE-2026-17072)
A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). When parsing FUJIFILM metadata in an AVI strd
chunk, gst_avi_demux_parse_strd() decrements a remaining-length counter by fixed offsets (98 and 10 bytes)
without verifying sufficient data remains. For crafted strd payloads of exactly 106 or 107 bytes, the
counter underflows to a very large unsigned value, causing subsequent null-terminated string scanning to
read far beyond the allocated heap buffer. Date-format normalization may also write beyond the buffer end.
Confirmed impacts include heap out-of-bounds read, out-of-bounds write, heap information disclosure
(adjacent data appearing in parsed metadata), and application crash/denial of service. The avidemux
element is auto-plugged by playbin, decodebin, and gst-discoverer, so opening or previewing a crafted AVI
is sufficient to trigger the issue. Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
(CVE-2026-73433)
A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). In gst_avi_demux_riff_parse_vprp(), the number
of available gst_riff_vprp_video_field_desc entries is calculated by dividing the remaining buffer size by
the attacker-controlled vprp->fields value, rather than by sizeof(gst_riff_vprp_video_field_desc). This
can cause the parser to treat more field descriptors as available than fit in the input buffer, resulting
in out-of-bounds reads. Processing a crafted AVI via playbin/decodebin can crash the application (denial
of service). Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072). (CVE-2026-73434)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
