The msrle_decode_8_16_24_32 function in msrledec.c in libavcodec in FFmpeg through 1.1.3 does not properly determine certain end pointers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted Microsoft RLE data.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old FFmpeg media-decoding flaw. If a vulnerable application processes specially crafted Microsoft RLE video data, it can crash and may have other unspecified impact. Business risk is mainly availability for systems that accept or automatically process untrusted media. Exposure is most likely in legacy products, servers, desktop tools, or embedded workflows using FFmpeg/libavcodec through 1.1.3 to decode untrusted Microsoft RLE media. Prioritize remediation where untrusted media is uploaded, scanned, transcoded, previewed, or processed automatically. This is not KEV-listed in the supplied data, but legacy exposed media pipelines can face reliability risk. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems and products that bundle FFmpeg or libavcodec.; Check OS, application, and vendor advisories for CVE-2013-2496 fixes.; Upgrade vulnerable FFmpeg/libavcodec versions where vendor-supported packages exist..
