NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit package and not the pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in PipeWire, a multimedia server. This vulnerability allows an attacker to escape sandboxed applications, such as Flatpak, by exploiting PipeWire's PulseAudio compatibility layer. An attacker with minimal permissions within a sandboxed environment can load a malicious library, leading to arbitrary code execution outside the sandbox and potential compromise of the user's system.
