A flaw was found in FFmpeg. The Electronic Arts (EA) TGV video decoder does not properly handle errors when processing oversized packets, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted media file to crash the application, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-10 19:54:03 UTC
FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in tgv_decode_inter() in libavcodec/eatgv.c that ignores init_get_bits() failure on oversized packets. Attackers can supply a crafted EA file with a kVGT frame followed by an fVGT inter frame with a 2^28-byte compressed block section, crashing the process for denial of service.
