NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gst-plugins-bad1 package and not the gst-plugins-bad1 package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

The gst_ps_demux_parse_psm function in gst/mpegdemux/gstmpegdemux.c in gst-plugins-bad in GStreamer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via vectors involving PSM parsing.
