Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the RV60 video decoder. An attacker can cause limited information disclosure and denial of service by convincing a user to process a specially crafted RV60 file.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by avoiding the processing of untrusted RV60 files and, if automatic processing is required, running the application inside a container or restricted sandbox environment to limit potential security impact.
