Summary
libvpx vulnerability
Details

Xiantong Hou discovered that libvpx would overflow when attempting to allocate memory for very large images. If an application using libvpx opened a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the application to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or the execution of arbitrary code.
