Until a fix is available, avoid processing untrusted bitpacked UYVY422 packets or crafted SDP/RFC 4175 RTP sessions. Monitor vendor advisories for updates.

Description

FFmpeg versions through 9.0.2 have an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the bitpacked_decode_uyvy422() function within libavcodec/bitpacked_dec.c. The flaw arises because the function does not verify that packets contain the expected number of bytes (width * height * 2). Crafted truncated bitpacked UYVY422 packets can cause application crashes or expose adjacent heap memory.
