Echo: ffmpeg: security update to 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1+e3

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 459814

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - FFmpeg through 8.1.2, fixed in commit aafb5c6, contains a signed integer overflow vulnerability in the
 MACE6 audio decoder that allows attackers to corrupt heap memory by supplying a crafted CAF file with a
 malicious bytes_per_packet value. Attackers can craft a CAF file with oversized bytes_per_packet and
 frames_per_packet values in the desc chunk to trigger an integer overflow in mace_decode_frame() during
 output sample count computation, resulting in an undersized buffer allocation and heap out-of-bounds write
 that could enable code execution. (CVE-2026-66039)

Solution

Update the ffmpeg library and its related packages to version 7:7.1.5-0+deb13u1+e3 or later.
