CVE-2016-2328 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Echo:latest ffmpeg to version 2.8.6-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ffmpeg package and not the ffmpeg package as distributed by Echo.
See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.
libswscale/swscale_unscaled.c in FFmpeg before 2.8.6 does not validate certain height values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array read access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted .cine file, related to the bayer_to_rgb24_wrapper and bayer_to_yv12_wrapper functions.
