CVE-2017-5845
The gst_avi_demux_parse_ncdt function in gst/avi/gstavidemux.c in gst-plugins-good in GStreamer before 1.10.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) via a ncdt sub-tag that "goes behind" the surrounding tag.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.82%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
