The Matroska format decoder in FFmpeg before 0.8.3 does not properly
allocate memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
via a crafted file.

mdeslaur | ffmpeg-extra in multiverse needs to have matching version libav-extra is built with tarball produced by libav package |
tyhicks | The Mitre description references MSVR11-011, while the upstream commit message references MSVR11-080, which does not exist. I believe there may have been a typo in the commit message. I believe the ffmpeg commit 77d2ef13 was for the 0.8.3 release and 956c901c was the backport for the 0.7.5 release. The older ffmpeg packages in lucid and maverick look to have the same vulnerable code. |
