NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ffmpeg-private-devel package and not the ffmpeg-private-devel package as distributed by SLES.

The flv_write_packet function in libavformat/flvenc.c in FFmpeg through 2.8 does not check for an empty audio packet, leading to an assertion failure.
