Two more security issues have been corrected in the libav multimedia library. This is a follow-up announcement for DLA-1611-1.
CVE-2015-6823
The allocate_buffers function in libavcodec/alac.c did not initialize certain context data, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC) data. This issues has now been addressed by clearing pointers in avcodec/alac.c’s allocate_buffers().
Other than stated in debian/changelog of upload 6:11.12-1~deb8u2, this issue only now got fixed with upload of 6:11.12-1~deb8u3.
CVE-2015-6824
The sws_init_context function in libswscale/utils.c did not initialize certain pixbuf data structures, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted video data. In swscale/utils.c now these pix buffers get cleared which fixes use of uninitialized memory.
Other than stated in debian/changelog of upload 6:11.12-1~deb8u2, this issue only now got fixed with upload of 6:11.12-1~deb8u3.
For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, these problems have been fixed in version 6:11.12-1~deb8u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your libav packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
