CVE-2026-52718 Details
Description
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.
A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in GStreamer's AV1 codec parser within the gst-plugins-bad package. The issue arises in the gst_av1_parser_parse_tile_list_obu() function, which incorrectly passes a byte count to a bit-reader API that requires a bit count. This misalignment causes the parser to become desynchronized. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to open a specially crafted AV1 media file, leading to an assertion failure that causes the application to crash.
Red Hat has not provided a specific fix for this vulnerability yet, but GStreamer versions 1.28.4 or 1.28.5 are expected to include the patch.
