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.
