MetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FFmpeg versions 2.3 through 3.4
Description The issue is related to the gmc mmx function in libavcodec/x86/mpegvideodsp.c, which does not properly validate widths and heights. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted MPEG file, resulting in an integer signedness error and out-of-array read.
Recommendations For FFmpeg versions 2.3 through 3.4, consider updating to a version where this issue is fixed, as the current version does not properly handle the validation of widths and heights in the gmc mmx function.
