A Segmentation fault casued by heap use after free vulnerability exists in Gpac through 1.0.1 via the mpgviddmx_process function in reframe_mpgvid.c when using mp4box, which causes a denial of service.
Weakness
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
