A vulnerability was found in GStreamer Good Plug-ins up to 0.10.11 (Multimedia Processing Software). It has been rated as very critical. Affected by this issue is the function qtdemux_parse_samples. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Array index error in the qtdemux_parse_samples function in gst/qtdemux/qtdemux.c in GStreamer Good Plug-ins (aka gst-plugins-good) 0.10.9 through 0.10.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted Sync Sample (aka stss) atom data in a malformed QuickTime media .mov file, related to "mark keyframes."

The bug was discovered 01/22/2009. The weakness was shared 02/02/2009 by Tobias Klein (Website). The advisory is available at gstreamer.freedesktop.org. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2009-0387 since 02/02/2009. The attack may be launched remotely. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. The structure of the vulnerability defines a possible price range of USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 08/27/2019).
