Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free via the ecam_encoder_compress_h264 function when server-controlled dimensions are trusted without validating the source buffer size. An attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read by supplying crafted input that causes the function to access memory beyond the allocated buffer.
