Integer overflow in the ape_decode_frame function in libavcodec/apedec.c in FFmpeg 2.4 through 3.3.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-array access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted APE file.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-11399 affects FFmpeg media parsing for APE audio files. A specially crafted APE file can crash an application using vulnerable FFmpeg versions, creating a denial-of-service risk for systems that process user-supplied media. Exposure is most likely in services, desktop applications, or processing pipelines that use FFmpeg or libavcodec to decode uploaded, emailed, or otherwise untrusted APE media files. Treat as a targeted reliability and availability issue for media-facing systems. It is not listed as known exploited in the supplied data, but public-facing upload or transcoding services should patch promptly. Mitigation focus: Inventory FFmpeg and libavcodec versions in media-processing systems.; Prioritize upgrades for FFmpeg 2.4 through 3.3.2 deployments.; Follow Debian DSA-3957 or applicable vendor guidance for patched packages..
