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 prepare_sdp_description function in ffserver.c in FFmpeg before 1.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the rtp format.
