6.8 MEDIUM — AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Description

The seg_write_packet function in libavformat/segment.c in ffmpeg 2.1.4 and earlier does not free the correct memory location, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service ("invalid memory handler") and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted video that triggers a use after free.

Affected configurations

• ffmpeg ffmpeg (<= 2.1.4)
