CVE-2024-0444: GStreamer AV1 Video Parsing Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 75.6% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: gstreamer1 (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9; gstreamer1-devel (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9; gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to gstreamer1 (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9; gstreamer1-devel (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9; gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free (AlmaLinux:9) 1.22.12-3.el9 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

GStreamer AV1 Video Parsing Stack-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 parsing of tile list data within AV1-encoded video 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 stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22873.
