The H.263 codec (libavcodec/h263dec.c) in FFmpeg 0.7.x before 0.7.12, 0.8.x before 0.8.11, and unspecified versions before 0.10, and in Libav 0.5.x before 0.5.9, 0.6.x before 0.6.6, 0.7.x before 0.7.5, and 0.8.x before 0.8.1 has unspecified impact and attack vectors related to "width/height changing with frame threads."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE affects older FFmpeg and Libav media-decoding libraries. The public record does not state a concrete impact, but the issue is tied to H.263 video decoding when frame dimensions change with threaded decoding. Systems that process untrusted video should treat outdated embedded copies as exposure. Exposure is most likely where applications, services, appliances, or pipelines use vulnerable FFmpeg or Libav versions to decode H.263 video, especially from user-supplied media. Bundled or statically linked copies may persist after operating system packages are updated. Prioritize remediation for internet-facing or customer-facing media-processing workflows. For internal systems without untrusted video input, urgency is lower but still worth closing because affected versions are obsolete and may contain other unresolved media parser issues. Mitigation focus: Upgrade FFmpeg 0.7.x to 0.7.12, 0.8.x to 0.8.11, or a non-vulnerable later release.; Upgrade Libav 0.5.x to 0.5.9, 0.6.x to 0.6.6, 0.7.x to 0.7.5, or 0.8.x to 0.8.1.; Replace statically bundled FFmpeg or Libav copies in applications, appliances, and container images..
