NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ffmpeg package and not the ffmpeg package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:14 relevant fixed versions and status.

FFmpeg before 9.0 has an out-of-bounds read because the copied extradata lacked required padding before GetBitContext-based access in libavformat/iamf_writer.c.
