{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-17072","details":"A flaw was found in GStreamer's gst-plugins-good. A heap-based out-of-bounds read of 4 bytes can occur when parsing FLAC audio stream headers embedded in a Matroska or WebM container file. The vulnerability is triggered by a boundary check that does not account for the full size of the data being copied, allowing a small read past the end of the allocated buffer. An attacker could exploit this by crafting a malicious Matroska or WebM file and tricking a user into opening it, potentially leaking a small amount of adjacent heap memory.","modified":"2026-09-22T03:22:15.304748840Z","published":"2026-07-28T11:17:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-17072"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-17072"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-17072"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"gst-plugins-good1.0","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/gst-plugins-good1.0?arch=source&distro=esm-infra-legacy%2Fxenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.0-1ubuntu1","1.6.1-1ubuntu1","1.6.2-1ubuntu1","1.7.1-1ubuntu1","1.7.2-1ubuntu1","1.7.90-1ubuntu1","1.7.91-1ubuntu1","1.8.0-1ubuntu1","1.8.1-1ubuntu0.1","1.8.2-1ubuntu0.1","1.8.2-1ubuntu0.2","1.8.2-1ubuntu0.3","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.3","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.4","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm1","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm2","1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-plugins-good","binary_version":"1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm3"},{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio","binary_version":"1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm3"},{"binary_version":"1.8.3-1ubuntu0.5+esm3","binary_name":"libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-17072.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gst-plugins-good0.10","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/gst-plugins-good0.10?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2~gcc5.1","0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.1","0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.2","0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"gstreamer0.10-gconf","binary_version":"0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.3"},{"binary_version":"0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.3","binary_name":"gstreamer0.10-plugins-good"},{"binary_version":"0.10.31-3+nmu4ubuntu2.16.04.3","binary_name":"gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-17072.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gst-plugins-good1.0","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/gst-plugins-good1.0?arch=source&distro=esm-infra%2Fbionic"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.12.3-1ubuntu1","1.12.4-1ubuntu1","1.13.1-1ubuntu1","1.13.91-1ubuntu1","1.14.0-1ubuntu1","1.14.1-1ubuntu1~ubuntu18.04.1","1.14.4-1ubuntu1~ubuntu18.04.1","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.1","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.2","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm1","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm2","1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-gtk3","binary_version":"1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3"},{"binary_version":"1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3","binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-plugins-good"},{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio","binary_version":"1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3"},{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-qt5","binary_version":"1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3"},{"binary_version":"1.14.5-0ubuntu1~18.04.3+esm3","binary_name":"libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-17072.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gst-plugins-good1.0","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/gst-plugins-good1.0?arch=source&distro=esm-infra%2Ffocal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.16.1-1ubuntu1","1.16.2-1ubuntu1","1.16.2-1ubuntu2","1.16.2-1ubuntu2.1","1.16.3-0ubuntu1","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.1","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.2","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm1","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm2","1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3","binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-gtk3"},{"binary_version":"1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3","binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-plugins-good"},{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio","binary_version":"1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3"},{"binary_version":"1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3","binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-qt5"},{"binary_name":"libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0","binary_version":"1.16.3-0ubuntu1.3+esm3"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-17072.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gst-plugins-good1.0","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/gst-plugins-good1.0?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.18.5-1ubuntu2","1.18.5-1ubuntu3","1.20.0-2ubuntu1","1.20.1-1ubuntu1","1.20.3-0ubuntu1","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.1","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.3","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.4","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.5","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.6","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.7","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.8","1.20.3-0ubuntu1.9"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-gtk3","binary_version":"1.20.3-0ubuntu1.9"},{"binary_name":"gstreamer1.0-plugins-good","binary_version":"1.20.3-0ubuntu1.9"},{"binary_version":"1.
