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
libav version 13 dev0
ffmpeg version n3.4
chromium versions prior to 56 (before Feb 13, 2017)
Description
The issue arises from the return value of
init get bits being ignored, leading to get ue golomb(&gb) being called on an uninitialized get bits context. This results in a NULL deref exception.Recommendations
For libav version 13 dev0, ensure proper initialization of the
get bits context before calling get ue golomb(&gb).
For ffmpeg version n3.4, verify the return value of init get bits to prevent calling get ue golomb(&gb) on an uninitialized context.
For chromium versions prior to 56 (before Feb 13, 2017), update to a version released after Feb 13, 2017, to ensure the issue is resolved.Exploitability
