"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. An OOB-read has been
discovered in gst_wavparse_cue_chunk within gstwavparse.c. The vulnerability happens due to a discrepancy
between the size of the data buffer and the size value provided to the function. This mismatch causes the
comparison if (size < 4 + ncues * 24) to fail in some cases, allowing the subsequent loop to access beyond
the bounds of the data buffer. The root cause of this discrepancy stems from a miscalculation when
clipping the chunk size based on upstream data size. This vulnerability allows reading beyond the bounds
of the data buffer, potentially leading to a crash (denial of service) or the leak of sensitive data. This
vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10. (CVE-2024-47776)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
