Axiomatic Systems · Bento4 · CVE-2018-5253
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Bento4 version 1.5.1.0
**Description**
The issue is related to an infinite loop in the AP4 FtypAtom class, which can be triggered by a crafted MP4 file. This occurs due to size mishandling in the Core/Ap4FtypAtom.cpp component of Bento4.
**Recommendations**
For Bento4 version 1.5.1.0, consider avoiding the use of crafted MP4 files that may trigger the infinite loop until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the processing of MP4 files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
