An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the VA JPEG decoder in GStreamer's gst-plugins-bad. The JPEG parser reads a segment length value from the bitstream without validating it against available data. A remote attacker could trick a user into opening a specially crafted JPEG file, causing downstream parsing to read beyond the provided input buffer, leading to a crash or potential information disclosure.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1917 advisory.

    A denial of service vulnerability was found in GStreamer's AV1 codec parser in gst-plugins-bad. The     gst_av1_parser_parse_tile_list_obu() function passes a byte count to a bit-reader API that expects a bit     count, causing parser desynchronization. A remote attacker could trick a user into opening a specially     crafted AV1 media file, triggering an assertion abort and causing the application to crash.
    (CVE-2026-52718)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the VA JPEG decoder in GStreamer's gst-plugins-bad. The     JPEG parser reads a segment length value from the bitstream without validating it against available data.
    A remote attacker could trick a user into opening a specially crafted JPEG file, causing downstream     parsing to read beyond the provided input buffer, leading to a crash or potential information disclosure.
    (CVE-2026-52719)

    A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in GStreamer's librfb (RFB/VNC client). The rectangle     bounds check incorrectly validates area rather than individual dimensions, allowing a malicious VNC server     to send a rectangle that extends beyond the framebuffer. A remote attacker could set up a malicious VNC     server and trick a user into connecting, resulting in an out-of-bounds heap write that could lead to code     execution or a crash. (CVE-2026-52720)

    Multiple out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities were found in GStreamer's pcapparse element. Malformed PCAP     records can trigger reads beyond buffer boundaries during IPv4/TCP header parsing. This element is     primarily used in debugging pipelines, limiting real-world exposure. A local attacker could trick a user     into processing a specially crafted PCAP file, potentially leading to a crash or information disclosure.
    (CVE-2026-52721)

    A signed integer overflow vulnerability was found in GStreamer's VMnc decoder. A crafted VMnc stream with     large cursor dimensions can overflow signed integer payload-size arithmetic, bypassing a length check and     leading to out-of-bounds reads. A remote attacker could trick a user into opening a specially crafted VMnc     file, potentially causing a crash or information disclosure. (CVE-2026-52722)

    A stack buffer overflow flaw was found in the GStreamer H.265 codec parser library (gst-plugins-bad). When     parsing a buffering period SEI message, the parser uses an incorrect loop bound derived from     cpb_cnt_minus1[i] (the loop index) instead of the sub-layer 0 CPB count cpb_cnt_minus1[0] from the     referenced Sequence Parameter Set. A crafted H.265 video file or stream can cause the parser to write     beyond the bounds of stack-allocated CPB delay arrays, resulting in a crash or potential stack memory     corruption. (CVE-2026-53702)

    Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in plugins for     the GStreamer media framework and its codecs and demuxers, which     may result in denial of service or potentially the execution of     arbitrary code if a malformed media file is opened.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 1.26.2-3+deb13u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your gst-plugins-bad1.0 packages.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the VA JPEG decoder in GStreamer's gst-plugins-bad. The     JPEG parser reads a segment length value from the bitstream without validating it against available data.
    A remote attacker could trick a user into opening a specially crafted JPEG file, causing downstream     parsing to read beyond the provided input buffer, leading to a crash or potential information disclosure.
    (CVE-2026-52719)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
