Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-125188

low Nessus Plugin ID 379143

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

 - FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability in libavcodec/proresenc_anatoliy.c that occurs when the prores_aw encoder processes interlaced, odd-height frames. Attackers can supply odd- height video that causes subimage_with_fill_template() to fill padding rows from memory before the fill_y buffer, leaking heap contents into the encoded output. (CVE-2026-125188)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
