libavcodec/xface.h in FFmpeg before 2.5.2 establishes certain digits and words array dimensions that do not satisfy a required mathematical relationship, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted X-Face image data.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-9602 is an FFmpeg flaw fixed before version 2.5.2. A specially crafted X-Face image could make FFmpeg read outside expected array bounds, causing a crash or possibly another unspecified effect. The provided sources do not give CVSS severity or evidence of active exploitation. Likely exposure exists in systems using FFmpeg before 2.5.2, or applications embedding affected libavcodec code, that process untrusted X-Face image data. The bundle does not provide a broader affected-product matrix beyond FFmpeg. Prioritize remediation where FFmpeg handles external or user-supplied data, because crafted input can remotely disrupt service. Systems without untrusted X-Face processing are lower urgency. The absence of CVSS and KEV data limits certainty. Mitigation focus: Upgrade FFmpeg to version 2.5.2 or later where applicable.; Review Gentoo GLSA-201603-06 if managing Gentoo-packaged FFmpeg.; Identify applications that bundle FFmpeg or libavcodec rather than using system packages..
