Description Alexander Bergmann 2017-09-01 07:06:41 UTC

CVE-2017-14058

In FFmpeg 3.3.3, the read_data function in libavformat/hls.c does not
restrict reload attempts for an insufficient list, which allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop).

Upstream fix:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/7ec414892ddcad88313848494b6fc5f437c9ca4a

Comment 1 Alexander Bergmann 2017-09-01 07:07:28 UTC

As we have currently no official ffmpeg maintainer in openSUSE I've added the last 3 persons that are visible inside the changes file.

Feel free to submit a fix.
