FFmpeg 9.0 through 9.0.2 built with liblcevc_dec fails to validate LCEVC enhanced output dimensions against max_pixels in libavcodec/decode.c before frame allocation. Attackers can supply crafted H.264, HEVC or VVC streams declaring huge LCEVC resolutions to force oversized get_buffer2() allocations and exhaust memory.
