Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-125041

critical Nessus Plugin ID 377877

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

- A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good MOV/MP4 demuxer. When processing an uncompressed video track, qtdemux fails to validate the declared row alignment and chroma geometry before using them to build a video buffer layout. A crafted file can cause an out-of-bounds heap read while the sample is copied, potentially crashing the application and causing denial of service. (CVE-2026-125041)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
