NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ffmpeg package and not the ffmpeg package as distributed by Debian.

The sbr_qmf_synthesis function in libavcodec/aacsbr.c in FFmpeg before 0.9.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted mpg file that triggers memory corruption involving the v_off variable, probably a buffer underflow.
