CVE-2026-125237

MediumCVSS 4.7
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

FFmpeg 8.1 through 9.0.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability in libavcodec/dpx.c that leaves dpx->hwaccel_picture_private allocated when Vulkan hwaccel callbacks fail. Attackers can supply crafted DPX images that make start_frame, decode_slice or end_frame fail, triggering an av_assert0 abort on the next frame and terminating the decoding application.

Risk Assessment

Applications decoding DPX with Vulkan acceleration can be crashed by a malicious file, disrupting service or batch processing.

Recommendation

Update FFmpeg to a patched version or disable Vulkan acceleration for DPX decoding until updated.
