Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libmp4v2 version 2.1.0

Description The issue arises from the function mp4v2::impl::MP4Track::FinishSdtp() in mp4track.cpp, which mishandles compatibleBrand while processing a crafted mp4 file. This leads to a heap-based buffer over-read, resulting in denial of service.

Recommendations For libmp4v2 version 2.1.0, as a temporary workaround, consider disabling the FinishSdtp() function until a patch is available.
