CVE-2008-4201

Publication date 24 September 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Heap-based buffer overflow in the decodeMP4file function (frontend/main.c) in FAAD2 2.6.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MPEG-4 (MP4) file.
