There is no fixed version for GPAC4iOS.
Overview
GPAC4iOS is a GPAC4iOS is the libgpac library packaged for iOS as a Pod. It is preconfigured and tested to do a single task: create a MP4 file from a raw H.264 and an audio track.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow. The following function is used by the library to parse atoms identified by the pcrb FOURCC code. The library will read a u32 from the input and store it as the number of sub-segments. This number will be multiplied by the size of a u64 which can result in an integer overflow. Due to the integer overflow, this can result in an undersized allocation being made. Later at line 30, the library will begin to read integers from the input and then combine them when writing them into the buffer that was allocated. Due to the buffer being undersized, the assignment to the “pcr_values” field will write outside the bounds of the buffer. This is a heap-based buffer overflow and will result in memory corruption.
