NVD Description

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

aa_read_header in libavformat/aadec.c in FFmpeg before 3.2.14 and 4.x before 4.1.4 does not check for sscanf failure and consequently allows use of uninitialized variables.
