Description

GStreamer before 1.18.4 might access already-freed memory in error code
paths when demuxing certain malformed Matroska files (SA-2021-0002).

GStreamer before 1.18.4 might cause heap corruption when parsing certain
malformed Matroska files (SA-2021-0003).

GStreamer before 1.18.4 might do an out-of-bounds read when handling

privileges of the target user.
