CVE-2018-13300

Published: 5 July 2018

In FFmpeg 3.2 and 4.0.1, an improper argument (AVCodecParameters) passed to the avpriv_request_sample function in the handle_eac3 function in libavformat/movenc.c may trigger an out-of-array read while converting a crafted AVI file to MPEG4, leading to a denial of service and possibly an information disclosure.

Notes

AuthorNote
mdeslaur
marking chromium-browser as ignored, since we do full-version
updates, and rely on upstream's bundled ffmpeg version
ebarretto
ffmpeg 2.8 has a subtle difference in the code that make it
not affected.
