DescriptionCVE.org

FFmpeg through 8.1.2, fixed in commit 5d7112c, contains a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the vf_hqdn3d filter that allows attackers to corrupt heap memory by supplying a crafted video whose frame resolution increases between frames when filtergraph reinitialization is disabled via the -reinit_filter 0 option. Attackers can provide a malicious video input where vf_hqdn3d.config_input() allocates undersized per-plane line-history buffers based on the initial frame width, and subsequent larger frames cause denoise_spatial() to write beyond the allocation boundary, resulting in heap memory corruption.

AnalysisAI

Heap-based buffer overflow in the vf_hqdn3d denoising filter of FFmpeg versions up to 8.1.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into processing a crafted video with filter graph reinitialization explicitly disabled (-reinit_filter 0). Exploitation requires the vulnerable filter to be applied to input where frame width increases after the initial frame, causing an undersized buffer allocation and subsequent out-of-bounds write. …
