NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gst-plugins-good1.0 package and not the gst-plugins-good1.0 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 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 (invalid memory read and crash) via a ncdt sub-tag that "goes behind" the surrounding tag.
