An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2011-4579 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ffmpeg Ffmpeg. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4579/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4579/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-4579","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4579/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-4579","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2011-4579","GHSA-pj2p-3xg2-cf68"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FFmpeg media library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via memory corruption in FFmpeg's SVQ1 decoder by sending a crafted stream.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ffmpeg","vendor":"ffmpeg"},{"product":"libav","vendor":"libav"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The svq1_decode_frame function in the SVQ1 decoder (svq1dec.c) in libavcodec in FFmpeg 0.5.x before 0.5.7, 0.6.x before 0.6.4, 0.7.x before 0.7.9, and 0.8.x before 0.8.8; and in Libav 0.5.x before 0.5.6, 0.6.x before 0.6.4, and 0.7.x before 0.7.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted SVQ1 stream, related to \"dimensions changed.\"","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4579","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ffmpeg:ffmpeg","products":["ffmpeg:ffmpeg","libav:libav"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4580"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4578"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-08-20","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0864","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0872","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0873","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-4265","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3937","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-01-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2772","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2775","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-10"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via memory corruption in FFmpeg's SVQ1 decoder by sending a crafted stream.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4579/"}
