Last modified
CVE-2016-9636 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Heap-based buffer overflow in the flx_decode_delta_fli function in gst/flx/gstflxdec.c in the FLIC decoder in GStreamer before 1.10.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) by providing a 'write count' that goes beyond the initialized buffer.. EPSS estimates a 8.91% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
