Alpine: multiple gst-plugins-bad packages: security update to 1.22.7-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 408033

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- GStreamer MXF File Parsing Integer 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 MXF video files. The issue results from the
lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in an integer overflow before allocating
a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current
process. . Was ZDI-CAN-21660. (CVE-2023-40474)

- GStreamer MXF File Parsing Integer 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 MXF video files. The issue results from the
lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in an integer overflow before allocating
a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current
process. . Was ZDI-CAN-21661. (CVE-2023-40475)

- GStreamer H265 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 H265 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-21768. (CVE-2023-40476)

- GStreamer AV1 Codec Parsing Heap-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 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 heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the
context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22226. (CVE-2023-44429)

- GStreamer MXF File Parsing Use-After-Free 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 MXF video files. The issue results from the
lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker
can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-22299.
