The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201512-07 (GStreamer: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been found in the parsing of H.264       formatted video.

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted H.264       formatted video using an application linked against GStreamer, possibly       resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the       process or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
