Package : libde265 CVE ID : CVE-2024-38949 CVE-2024-38950 CVE-2025-61147 CVE-2026-45382 CVE-2026-45383 CVE-2026-49295 CVE-2026-49337 CVE-2026-49346 CVE-2026-54240 CVE-2026-54241 Debian Bug : 1074416 1129257 1140431

Multiple security issues were discovered in libde265, an open source implementation of the H.265/HEVC video codec, which may result in denial of service, memory exhaustion or potentially the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed media file is processed.

For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.15-1+deb13u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libde265 packages.

For the detailed security status of libde265 please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/libde265

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the libde265-0 packages.
