NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-devel package and not the gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-devel package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The ROM mappings in the NSF decoder in gstreamer 0.10.x allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read or write) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted NSF music file.
