Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to NULL Pointer Dereference due to insufficient validation of memory allocation before use in the decode_init() function. An attacker can cause an application crash by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted ALS file which leads to av_malloc_array() or av_calloc() functions to fail.
