NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free package and not the gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The _parse_pat function in the mpegts parser in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a crafted file.
