NVD Description

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

The ff_log2_16bit_c function in libavutil/intmath.h in FFmpeg before 3.1.4 is vulnerable to reading out-of-bounds memory when it decodes a malformed AIFF file.
