CVE-2026-70628
CVE-2026-70628 · FFmpeg 0.5 < 9.0 DVB Subtitle Parser Heap Buffer Overflow via WTV File
This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.
FFmpeg versions from 0.5 up to, but not including, 9.0 contain a signed integer overflow vulnerability in the DVB subtitle parser in libavcodec/dvbsub_parser.c that allows attackers to trigger a heap buffer overflow by supplying a crafted WTV file. The overflow causes the bounds-check guard expression to wrap to INT_MIN, bypassing the PARSE_BUF_SIZE comparison and invoking memcpy() with attacker-controlled data into a heap buffer, resulting in an out-of-bounds heap write and potential memory corruption or code execution.
