Technical details
A NULL pointer dereference occurs in the dasher_insert_timeline_entry function within filters/dasher.c when processing MP4 files with corrupted DTS (Decoding Time Stamp) sequence data that result in empty DASH segments. The vulnerability is triggered when the dasher filter attempts to access timeline entries without validating pointer states first. An attacker can supply a malformed MP4 file to trigger this crash.
