A null pointer dereference vulnerability has been discovered in the gst\_matroska\_demux\_parse\_blockgroup\_or\_simpleblock function within matroska-demux.c. This function does not properly check the validity of the GstBuffer \*sub pointer before performing dereferences. As a result, null pointer dereferences may occur. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.24.10.
