Until a fix is available, avoid processing untrusted FLV files with FSV1 streams or restrict usage to trusted sources only.

Description

FFmpeg versions through 9.0.2 have an information disclosure vulnerability in the flashsv_decode_block() function within libavcodec/flashsv.c. This flaw occurs when uninitialized heap memory is copied into decoded frames if the inflate output is shorter than expected. An attacker can exploit this by providing a crafted FLV file with an FSV1 stream that decompresses to a short zlib block, potentially leaking heap memory contents through the decoded or re-encoded output.
