The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.- GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components.

This vulnerability can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) by triggering a segmentation fault (SEGV). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10. (CVE-2024-47542)
