CVE-2015-8216: Ffmpeg

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 2.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The ljpeg_decode_yuv_scan function in libavcodec/mjpegdec.c in FFmpeg before 2.8.2 omits certain width and height checks, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted MJPEG data.

Affected products

• Ffmpeg Ffmpeg: up to and including 2.8.1
