"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- FFmpeg versions from 3.0 up to, but not including, 9.0 contain an uninitialized heap memory read
vulnerability in the native Screenpresso decoder (libavcodec/screenpresso.c) that allows attackers to
recover sensitive memory contents by supplying a crafted SPV1 packet with a valid zlib stream that
decompresses fewer bytes than the full frame requires. The screenpresso_decode_frame() function fails to
validate the produced byte count before calling av_image_copy_plane() to copy the complete frame
dimensions from the persistent ctx->inflated_buf buffer, causing unwritten heap memory from prior
allocations or prior frames to be copied into decoded output and potentially exposing sensitive data such
as userspace addresses from persistent decoding services. (CVE-2026-70630)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
