CVE-2026-125215

MediumCVSS 4.7
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

FFmpeg 7.1 through 9.0.2 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in ff_dovi_rpu_generate() in libavcodec/dovi_rpuenc.c that allows attackers to crash applications via crafted Dolby Vision RPU metadata. Attackers can supply streams with default or alternating omitted DM blocks to the dovi_rpu bitstream filter with compression enabled, causing denial of service.

Risk Assessment

This can lead to denial of service (DoS) in applications processing Dolby Vision metadata, causing service disruptions.

Recommendation

Update FFmpeg to a version later than 9.0.2 or apply available patches. Avoid processing untrusted streams with Dolby Vision metadata until updated.
