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

Use-after-free vulnerability in the matroska_read_seek function in libavformat/matroskadec.c in FFmpeg before 2.5.1, as used in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Matroska file that triggers improper maintenance of tracks data.
