CVE-2018-14394

CVSS v2.0

7.8

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FFmpeg versions prior to 4.0.2
Description The issue is related to a divide-by-zero error in the libavformat/movenc.c component of the FFmpeg library, which can be triggered by a user-crafted Waveform audio file. This can cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. The vulnerability is associated with a lack of division by zero checking, allowing a remote attacker to exploit it and cause a service disruption.
Recommendations For versions prior to 4.0.2, update to version 4.0.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of user-crafted Waveform audio files until the update is applied.
