The decode_ihdr_chunk function in libavcodec/pngdec.c in FFmpeg before
2.7.2 does not enforce uniqueness of the IHDR (aka image header) chunk in a
PNG image, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via
a crafted image with two or more of these chunks.
