The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the "decoder_iframe()", "decoder_pframe()", and "decoder_bframe()" functions in src/decoder.c. These can be exploited to potentially corrupt memory via specially crafted video files. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.2.2. SOLUTION: Update to version 1.2.2. PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: The vendor credits John McDonald and Christopher Valasek of IBM X-Force.
