Doc Text:
A flaw was found in FFmpeg. The decompression component in the audio decoder fails to properly validate input codes against internal dictionary boundaries. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user or system into processing a specially crafted MPEG-4 ALS (Audio Lossless Coding) file, causing uninitialized heap memory to be copied into the decoded audio output. This may lead to information disclosure by exposing sensitive data from application memory.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-10 20:14:59 UTC
FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in ff_mlz_decompression() in libavcodec/mlz.c, which accepts string codes beyond the dictionary's next free code. Attackers can supply a crafted MPEG-4 ALS file with malformed initial or out-of-range codes to copy uninitialized heap bytes into decoded audio output.
