The remote host is missing an update for the 'libav' package(s) announced via the USN-2534-1 advisory. It was discovered that Libav incorrectly handled certain malformed media files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted media file, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Please install the updated package(s)
