Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FFmpeg version 4.2

Description A Denial of Service issue exists due to a memory leak in the wtvfile open sector function in wtvdec.c. This is caused by incorrect memory deallocation before removing the last reference, allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

Recommendations For FFmpeg version 4.2, consider disabling the wtvfile open sector function in wtvdec.c as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the wtvdec.c component to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
