CVE-2016-9447: The ROM mappings in the NSF decoder in gstreamer 0.10.x allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service...

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.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw affects GStreamer 0.10.x when handling NSF music files. A maliciously crafted NSF file can crash the media decoder and may allow code execution. Business risk is highest where desktops, file-processing services, or media pipelines automatically parse untrusted audio files. Exposure is likely limited to systems that still use GStreamer 0.10.x and enable NSF decoding on files from users, email, web downloads, shared folders, or automated media-processing workflows. Treat as high priority only for environments that still process untrusted media through GStreamer 0.10.x. The possible code execution impact justifies prompt remediation, but urgency depends on whether the legacy decoder is actually installed and reachable. Mitigation focus: Identify systems running GStreamer 0.10.x or distribution packages containing it.; Apply relevant Red Hat, Gentoo, or other vendor updates where applicable.; Disable or remove NSF decoding support if it is not operationally required..
