NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gpac package and not the gpac package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

The binary MP4Box in Gpac 1.0.1 has a null pointer dereference vulnerability in the mpgviddmx_process function in reframe_mpgvid.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service. This vulnerability is possibly due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-40566.
