CVE-2018-14379 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:18.04 mp4v2.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mp4v2 package and not the mp4v2 package as distributed by Ubuntu.
See How to fix? for Ubuntu:18.04 relevant fixed versions and status.
MP4Atom::factory in mp4atom.cpp in MP4v2 2.0.0 incorrectly uses the MP4ItemAtom data type in a certain case where MP4DataAtom is required, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted MP4 file, because access to the data structure has different expectations about layout as a result of this type confusion.
