"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). When parsing FUJIFILM metadata in an AVI strd
chunk, gst_avi_demux_parse_strd() decrements a remaining-length counter by fixed offsets (98 and 10 bytes)
without verifying sufficient data remains. For crafted strd payloads of exactly 106 or 107 bytes, the
counter underflows to a very large unsigned value, causing subsequent null-terminated string scanning to
read far beyond the allocated heap buffer. Date-format normalization may also write beyond the buffer end.
Confirmed impacts include heap out-of-bounds read, out-of-bounds write, heap information disclosure
(adjacent data appearing in parsed metadata), and application crash/denial of service. The avidemux
element is auto-plugged by playbin, decodebin, and gst-discoverer, so opening or previewing a crafted AVI
is sufficient to trigger the issue. Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
(CVE-2026-73433)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
