CVE-2026-70632 Details
Description
FFmpeg versions from 4.4 up to, but not including, 9.0 contain an out-of-bounds heap write vulnerability in the native GoPro CineForm HD (CFHD) decoder that allows remote attackers to corrupt heap memory by supplying a crafted AVI file during stream probing. The cfhd_decode() function fails to enforce the non-Bayer logical output-width invariant in the transform-type-2 reconstruction path, causing horiz_filter_clip() to write oversized 16-bit sample rows far beyond the allocated output frame buffer, which can be escalated to arbitrary code execution via overwrite of a live cleanup callback pointer.
A vulnerability allowing an out-of-bounds heap write has been identified in the FFmpeg video processing framework, specifically in versions 4.4 prior to 9.0. The issue resides within the native GoPro CineForm HD (CFHD) decoder, where the `cfhd_decode()` function fails to properly validate the output width during the transform-type-2 reconstruction process. This oversight enables remote attackers to manipulate heap memory by sending a crafted AVI file during stream probing. The vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by overwriting a live cleanup callback pointer.
Users can upgrade to FFmpeg version 9.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
