The read_header function in libavcodec/ffv1dec.c in FFmpeg before 2.1 does not prevent changes to global parameters, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted FFV1 data.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old FFmpeg media-parsing flaw affecting versions before 2.1. A crafted FFV1 video stream could crash a vulnerable decoder through out-of-bounds array access. Business impact is mainly service disruption in systems that accept or process untrusted media files. Exposure is most likely in legacy applications, appliances, media pipelines, or embedded products using FFmpeg/libavcodec before 2.1, especially where users can upload or submit FFV1 video data. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless vulnerable FFmpeg is internet-facing or processes untrusted uploads at scale. Prioritize media-processing services where crashes affect customer workflows or operational availability. Mitigation focus: Upgrade FFmpeg/libavcodec to 2.1 or later, or a vendor-backported fixed package.; Check downstream vendor advisories for products bundling FFmpeg.; Restrict untrusted media uploads to patched processing paths..
