Summary

The Shorten codec (shorten.c) in libavcodec in FFmpeg 0.7.x before 0.7.12 and 0.8.x before 0.8.11, and in Libav 0.5.x before 0.5.9, 0.6.x before 0.6.6, 0.7.x before 0.7.5, and 0.8.x before 0.8.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Shorten file, related to an "invalid free".

    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities have been discovered in FFmpeg, a multimedia player, server and encoder. Multiple input validations in the decoders/demuxers for Shorten, Chinese AVS video, VP5, VP6, AVI, AVS and MPEG-1/2 files could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. Most of these issues were discovered by Mateusz Jurczyk and Gynvael Coldwind.

Integer signedness error in the decode_residual_inter function in cavsdec.c in libavcodec in FFmpeg allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect write operation and application crash) via an invalid bitstream in a Chinese AVS video (aka CAVS) file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-3362 (CVE-2011-3974). Double free vulnerability in the Theora decoder in FFmpeg allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted stream (CVE-2011-3892). FFmpeg does not properly implement the MKV and Vorbis media handlers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via unspecified vectors (CVE-2011-3893). Heap-based buffer overflow in the Vorbis decoder in FFmpeg allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted stream (CVE-2011-3895). An error within the QDM2 decoder (libavcodec/qdm2.c) can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow (CVE-2011-4351). An integer overflow error within the
