There is no fixed version for FFmpeg.

Overview

FFmpeg is a FFmpeg static library ruby binding that is compiled for iOS and CocoaPods.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read. FFMPEG is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks. A malicious user can launch an attack by sending a malicious MPEG file to the gmc_mmx() function in libavcodec/x86/mpegvideodsp.c. Since it fails to validate the width and height of the input, it leads to integer signedness error and an out-of-array read.
