CVSS v3.1
6.5
Medium
| Vector | AV: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 prior to 2.8.6
Description
The issue is caused by a buffer overflow in the jpeg2000 decode tile function of the FFmpeg library. This can be exploited by a remote attacker using specially crafted JPEG 2000 data, potentially leading to a denial of service due to out-of-bounds array read access.
Recommendations
For FFmpeg versions prior to 2.8.6, update to version 2.8.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the jpeg2000 decode tile function until a patch is applied. Avoid processing untrusted JPEG 2000 data with the affected FFmpeg versions.
