  - GStreamer ASF Demuxer Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. Interaction with
    this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the
    implementation. The specific flaw exists within the processing of stream headers within ASF files. The
    issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it
    to a fixed-length heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the
    context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28843. (CVE-2026-2920)

  - GStreamer RealMedia Demuxer Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. Interaction with
    this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the
    implementation. The specific flaw exists within the processing of video packets. The issue results from
    the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an
    allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the
    current process. Was ZDI-CAN-28845. (CVE-2026-2922)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
