    (CVE-2020-20896)

  - A CWE-125: Out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in long_term_filter function in g729postfilter.c in     FFmpeg 4.2.1 during computation of the denominator of pseudo-normalized correlation R'(0), that could     result in disclosure of information. (CVE-2020-20902)

  - A Denial of Service vulnerability exists in FFmpeg 4.2 due to a memory leak in avcodec_alloc_context3 at     options.c. (CVE-2020-22037)

  - decode_frame in libavcodec/exr.c in FFmpeg 4.3.1 has an out-of-bounds write because of errors in     calculations of when to perform memset zero operations. (CVE-2020-35965)

  - Prior to ffmpeg version 4.3, the tty demuxer did not have a 'read_probe' function assigned to it. By     crafting a legitimate ffconcat file that references an image, followed by a file the triggers the tty     demuxer, the contents of the second file will be copied into the output file verbatim (as long as the     `-vcodec copy` option is passed to ffmpeg). (CVE-2021-3566)

  - Integer Overflow vulnerability in function filter_prewitt in libavfilter/vf_convolution.c in Ffmpeg 4.2.1,     allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service or other unspecified impacts. (CVE-2021-38092)

  - Integer Overflow vulnerability in function filter_robert in libavfilter/vf_convolution.c in Ffmpeg 4.2.1,     allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service or other unspecified impacts. (CVE-2021-38093)

  - Integer Overflow vulnerability in function filter_sobel in libavfilter/vf_convolution.c in Ffmpeg 4.2.1,     allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service or other unspecified impacts. (CVE-2021-38094)

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

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

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 ESM / 20.04 ESM / 22.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6449-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that FFmpeg incorrectly managed memory resulting

    in a memory leak. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service via application     crash. This issue only

    affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2020-22038)

    It was discovered that FFmpeg incorrectly handled certain input files,

    leading to an integer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service via     application crash. This issue only

    affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2020-20898, CVE-2021-38090,

    CVE-2021-38091, CVE-2021-38092, CVE-2021-38093, CVE-2021-38094)

    It was discovered that FFmpeg incorrectly managed memory, resulting in a memory leak.

    If a user or automated system were tricked into

    processing a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a     denial of service, or execute

    arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-48434)
