What to do

AI-suggested

1. Monitor FFmpeg official channels for patches addressing CVE-2024-32228 and apply updates promptly once available. 2. Until patched, restrict local access to systems running FFmpeg 7.0 to trusted users only, minimizing the risk of local exploitation. 3. Implement sandboxing or containerization for applications using FFmpeg to isolate potential crashes and limit impact. 4. Employ input validation and filtering to block or sanitize untrusted HEVC video streams before processing. 5. Use alternative, patched versions of FFmpeg or other multimedia frameworks if immediate patching is not feasible. 6. Conduct regular security audits and fuzz testing on multimedia processing components to detect similar vulnerabilities proactively. 7. Monitor system logs and application behavior for signs of crashes or anomalous activity related to HEVC decoding. 8. Educate developers and system administrators about secure coding practices and the risks of buffer overflows in multimedia libraries.

Description

FFmpeg 7.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow. There is a SEGV at libavcodec/hevcdec.c:2947:22 in hevc_frame_end.
