CVE-2026-125244

HighCVSS 7.8
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

FFmpeg before 8.1.3 and 9.x before 9.0.2 contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the VVC decoder's sh_entry_points() function in libavcodec/vvc/ps.c. Attackers can supply a crafted VVC (H.266) bitstream whose SPS/PPS tile and WPP layout produces excess entry points, overflowing entry_point_start_ctu and corrupting decoder memory.

Risk Assessment

Processing a malicious VVC bitstream can corrupt memory, causing application crash or potential code execution.

Recommendation

Update FFmpeg to version 8.1.3 or 9.0.2 (or later) and avoid decoding untrusted VVC files until the fix is applied.
