Description

The aac_decode_init function in libavcodec/aacdec.c in FFmpeg before 1.0.4 and 1.1.x before 1.1.2 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via a large number of channels in an AAC file, which triggers an out-of-bounds array access.

  • ffmpeg-upgrade-1_0_4
  • ffmpeg-upgrade-1_1_2
