The gst_decode_chain_free_internal function in the flxdex decoder in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via an invalid file, which triggers an incorrect unref call.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability that has been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - gstreamer: Invalid memory read in g_type_check_instance_is_fundamentally_a (CVE-2016-9810)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability that has been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - gstreamer: Invalid memory read in g_type_check_instance_is_fundamentally_a (CVE-2016-9810)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

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

According to the versions of the gstreamer packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple flaws were found in gstreamer1,     gstreamer1-plugins-base, gstreamer1-plugins-good, and     gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free packages. An attacker could     potentially use these flaws to crash applications which     use the GStreamer framework. (CVE-2016-9446,     CVE-2016-9810, CVE-2016-9811, CVE-2016-10198,     CVE-2016-10199, CVE-2017-5837, CVE-2017-5838,     CVE-2017-5839, CVE-2017-5840, CVE-2017-5841,     CVE-2017-5842, CVE-2017-5843, CVE-2017-5844,     CVE-2017-5845, CVE-2017-5848)

An update is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

GStreamer is a streaming media framework based on graphs of filters which operate on media data.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
clutter-gst2 (2.0.18), gnome-video-effects (0.4.3), gstreamer1 (1.10.4), gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free (1.10.4), gstreamer1-plugins-base (1.10.4), gstreamer1-plugins-good (1.10.4), orc (0.4.26).

Security Fix(es) :

* Multiple flaws were found in gstreamer1, gstreamer1-plugins-base, gstreamer1-plugins-good, and gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free packages. An attacker could potentially use these flaws to crash applications which use the GStreamer framework. (CVE-2016-9446, CVE-2016-9810, CVE-2016-9811, CVE-2016-10198, CVE-2016-10199, CVE-2017-5837, CVE-2017-5838, CVE-2017-5839, CVE-2017-5840, CVE-2017-5841, CVE-2017-5842, CVE-2017-5843, CVE-2017-5844, CVE-2017-5845, CVE-2017-5848)
