"An update for gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
GStreamer is a streaming media framework based on graphs of filters
which operate on media data. The gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free package
contains a collection of plug-ins for GStreamer.
Security Fix(es) :
* An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow,
was found in GStreamer's VMware VMnc video file format decoding
plug-in. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause an application
using GStreamer to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2016-9445)
* Multiple flaws were discovered in GStreamer's H.264 and MPEG-TS
plug-ins. A remote attacker could use these flaws to cause an
application using GStreamer to crash. (CVE-2016-9809, CVE-2016-9812,
CVE-2016-9813)"
