CVE-2025-47776: 
PHP vulnerability analysis and mitigation

GStreamer, a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components, disclosed a vulnerability (CVE-2024-47776) on December 12, 2024. The vulnerability involves an out-of-bounds read in the gstwavparsecue_chunk function within gstwavparse.c. The issue stems from a discrepancy between the size of the data buffer and the size value provided to the function (Ubuntu Security).

The vulnerability occurs when the comparison 'if (size < 4 + ncues * 24)' fails in certain cases due to a miscalculation when clipping the chunk size based on upstream data size. This allows subsequent loop operations to access memory beyond the bounds of the data buffer. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.1 (Critical), indicating high severity (Red Hat Security).

The successful exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to two primary impacts: a potential crash resulting in denial of service, and the possible leak of sensitive data through unauthorized reading beyond the bounds of the data buffer (Ubuntu Security).

The vulnerability has been fixed in GStreamer version 1.24.10. Users are strongly advised to upgrade to this patched version. For systems that cannot immediately update, the vulnerability affects the wavparse component, specifically in WAV file parsing functionality (Ubuntu Security).
