  - A flaw was found in GStreamer. An integer overflow vulnerability in the AV1 LEB128 variable-length integer
    parser allows a remote attacker to cause a crash in applications that process AV1 media content. By
    crafting a malformed AV1 bitstream containing an invalid LEB128-encoded value, an attacker can cause
    integer overflow in the parser, resulting in incorrect length values being used during stream processing,
    which can lead to a denial of service. (CVE-2026-119729)
