Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-0860)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error. A remote attacker can trigger denial of service conditions via crafted picture data.


2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-0861)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

The avcodec_decode_audio4 function in libavcodec/utils.c in FFmpeg before 1.0.4 and 1.1.x before 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption via vectors related to the channel layout.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-0867)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The decode_slice_header function in libavcodec/h264.c in FFmpeg before 1.1.2 does not properly check when the pixel format changes, which allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via crafted H.264 video data, related to an out-of-bounds array access.
