In FFmpeg 4.0.1, improper handling of frame types (other than EAC3_FRAME_TYPE_INDEPENDENT) that have multiple independent substreams in the handle_eac3 function in libavformat/movenc.c may trigger an out-of-array access while converting a crafted AVI file to MPEG4, leading to a denial of service or possibly unspecified other impact.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In FFmpeg 4.0.1, improper handling of frame types (other than EAC3_FRAME_TYPE_INDEPENDENT) that have     multiple independent substreams in the handle_eac3 function in libavformat/movenc.c may trigger an out-of-     array access while converting a crafted AVI file to MPEG4, leading to a denial of service or possibly     unspecified other impact. (CVE-2018-13302)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - In FFmpeg 4.0.1, improper handling of frame types (other than EAC3_FRAME_TYPE_INDEPENDENT) that have
    multiple independent substreams in the handle_eac3 function in libavformat/movenc.c may trigger an out-of-
    array access while converting a crafted AVI file to MPEG4, leading to a denial of service or possibly
    unspecified other impact. (CVE-2018-13302)

  - The decode_init function in libavcodec/utvideodec.c in FFmpeg 2.8 through 3.4.2 allows remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (Out of array read) via an AVI file with crafted dimensions within chroma
    subsampling data. (CVE-2018-7557)

  - The svg_probe function in libavformat/img2dec.c in FFmpeg through 3.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (Infinite Loop) via a crafted XML file. (CVE-2018-7751)

  - The decode_init function in libavcodec/utvideodec.c in FFmpeg through 3.4.2 allows remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (out of array read) via an AVI file. (CVE-2018-10001)

  - An improper integer type in the mpeg4_encode_gop_header function in libavcodec/mpeg4videoenc.c in FFmpeg
    2.8 and 4.0 may trigger an assertion violation while converting a crafted AVI file to MPEG4, leading to a
    denial of service. (CVE-2018-12458)

This update for ffmpeg fixes the following issues: Security issues fixed :

  - CVE-2018-13302: Fixed out of array access issue     (bsc#1100356).

  - CVE-2018-1999010: Fixed multiple out of array access     vulnerabilities in the mms protocol that could result in     accessing out of bound data via specially crafted input     files (bnc#1102899)

  - CVE-2018-1999011: Fixed a heap buffer overflow in asf_o     format demuxer that could result in remote code     execution (bnc#1102689)

  - CVE-2018-1999012: Fixed an infinite loop vulnerability     in pva format demuxer that could result in excessive     amount of ressource allocation like CPU an RAM     (CVE-2018-1999012 bnc#1102688).

  - CVE-2018-1999013: Fixed an use-after-free vulnerability     in the realmedia demuxer that could allow remote     attackers to read heap memory (bnc#1102687)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the FFmpeg multimedia framework, which could result in denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code if malformed files/streams are processed.
