Gst-plugins-good: gst-plugins-good: local file disclosure via unvalidated file:// uris in adaptivedemux2 manifest handling

Published Nov 9, 2026 · Updated Nov 12, 2026 · Assigned by redhat

Description

A flaw was found in GStreamer's adaptive streaming demuxers (HLS, DASH, MSS). When processing a media playlist or manifest, URIs referenced in the manifest content are fetched without restricting which URI schemes are permitted. An attacker who controls a manifest URL, or who can inject content into an HTTP manifest response, can include file:// URIs pointing to arbitrary local files, causing the affected application to read and process those files. In automated or server-side deployments such as media recorders, proxies, and downloaders, this can lead to disclosure of sensitive local files. Existence of files can also be inferred through differing error responses even when content is not directly observable.
