Description
FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an integer underflow in decode_frame() in libavcodec/lcldec.c that allows attackers to trigger a heap out-of-bounds read via short ZLIB packets with FLAG_MULTITHREAD. Attackers can supply a crafted AVI or MKV file with an LCL video stream whose packet is shorter than 8 bytes, bypassing length clamping to crash the decoding application.
