CVE-2026-18299
GStreamer rtpsbcdepay Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer. Interaction with this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending on the implementation.
The specific flaw exists within the processing of RTP payload elements. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-29787.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.21%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 10
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026

- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution90 %
RTP payload procesado en GStreamer requiere interacción (UI:R); use-after-free permite ejecución de código arbitrario en el contexto del proceso.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
