Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-02 13:01:35 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #257217 +++

From the advisory:
FFmpeg contains a type conversion vulnerability while parsing malformed 4X 
movie files. The vulnerability may be exploited by a (remote) attacker to 
execute arbitrary code in the context of FFmpeg or an application using 
the FFmpeg library.

Upstream has fixed this in svn r16846, i haven't found a release yet.
