NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-debuginfo package and not the gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-debuginfo package as distributed by Rocky-Linux. See How to fix? for Rocky-Linux:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The mad_decoder_run() function in decoder.c in Underbit libmad through 0.15.1b allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (SIGABRT because of double free or corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file. NOTE: this may overlap CVE-2017-11552.
