A use after free vulnerability exists in GPAC version 2.3-DEV-revrelease, specifically in the gf_filterpacket_del function in filter_core/filter.c at line 38. This vulnerability can lead to a double-free condition, which may cause the application to crash.
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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
