The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200602-01 (GStreamer FFmpeg plugin: Heap-based buffer overflow)

The GStreamer FFmpeg plugin contains derived code from the FFmpeg     library, which is vulnerable to a heap overflow in the     'avcodec_default_get_buffer()' function discovered by Simon Kilvington     (see GLSA 200601-06).

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to run an application using     the GStreamer FFmpeg plugin on a maliciously crafted PIX_FMT_PAL8     format image file (like PNG images), possibly leading to the execution     of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the     application.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
