CVE-2026-125177

LowCVSS 3.3
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the MSCC/SRGC decoder (libavcodec/mscc.c) that outputs uninitialized heap bytes when RLE data ends early. A crafted MSCC or SRGC stream (e.g., in AVI) exposes leftover heap memory to viewers of the output.

Risk Assessment

Possible leak of the decoding process's memory contents, potentially revealing sensitive data. Risk applies to processing untrusted media files.

Recommendation

Update FFmpeg to a patched version or suspend processing of untrusted MSCC/SRGC streams until updated.

Original NVD description (English source)

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the MSCC/SRGC decoder in libavcodec/mscc.c that outputs uninitialized heap bytes when RLE data ends early. Attackers can craft an MSCC or SRGC stream, such as in AVI, whose RLE data terminates early so the decoded frame exposes leftover heap memory to viewers of the output.
