format decoding plug-in. A remote attacker could use these flaws to cause
an application using GStreamer to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running the application.
(CVE-2016-9634, CVE-2016-9635, CVE-2016-9636, CVE-2016-9808)

* An invalid memory read access flaw was found in GStreamer's FLC/FLI/FLX
media file format decoding plug-in. A remote attacker could use this flaw
to cause an application using GStreamer to crash. (CVE-2016-9807)

Note: This updates removes the vulnerable FLC/FLI/FLX plug-in.
