CVE-2026-125208

high

Description

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in v4l2_buffer_swframe_to_buf() in libavcodec/v4l2_buffers.c because cumulative plane offsets are not checked against the V4L2 buffer length. Attackers can supply crafted video whose dimensions or padding cause unsigned wraparound in v4l2_bufref_to_buf(), making memcpy() write past the mmaped driver buffer during V4L2 M2M encoding.
