NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gst-plugins-good package and not the gst-plugins-good package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.19 relevant fixed versions and status.

The gst_avi_demux_parse_ncdt function in gst/avi/gstavidemux.c in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read) via vectors involving ncdt tags.
