Summary
Low: GStreamer, libmad, and SDL security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Details

The GStreamer library provides a streaming media framework based on graphs of media data filters.

The libmad package is an MPEG audio decoder capable of 24-bit output.

Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) is a cross-platform multimedia library designed to provide fast access to the graphics frame buffer and audio device.

Security Fix(es):

  • libmad: Double-free in the mad_decoder_run() function (CVE-2018-7263)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
