Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound in the ngx_http_mp4_module when processing a specially crafted MP4 file. An attacker can cause memory corruption by supplying a malicious MP4 file, which may result in over-read or over-write of worker memory, leading to process termination and service disruption. This is only exploitable if running on a 32-bit system with the ngx_http_mp4_module enabled and the mp4 directive configured.
