CVSS 3.1
6.5
MediumMetricsAV: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. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
