The gstreamer-plugins package contains plug-ins used by the GStreamer
streaming-media framework to support a wide variety of media types.
An array indexing error was found in the GStreamer’s QuickTime media file
format decoding plug-in. An attacker could create a carefully-crafted
QuickTime media .mov file that would cause an application using GStreamer
to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code if played by a victim.
(CVE-2009-0398)
All users of gstreamer-plugins are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After
installing the update, all applications using GStreamer (such as
nautilus-media) must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
