Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2097)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
The tak_decode_frame function in libavcodec/takdec.c in FFmpeg before 2.1.4 does not properly validate a certain bits-per-sample value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted TAK (aka Tom's lossless Audio Kompressor) data.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2098)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
libavcodec/wmalosslessdec.c in FFmpeg before 2.1.4 uses an incorrect data-structure size for certain coefficients, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted WMA data.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2099)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
The msrle_decode_frame function in libavcodec/msrle.c in FFmpeg before 2.1.4 does not properly calculate line sizes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted Microsoft RLE video data.
