Descrição técnica

FFmpeg 8.0 through 9.0.2 contains a memory leak vulnerability in the VP9 decoder that allows attackers to exhaust memory because vp9_decode_frame() skips resetting the CBS fragment on error paths. Attackers can supply a crafted VP9 stream with invalid tile sizes decoded with slice threading to leak packet buffers and units, exhausting memory in the decoding application.

———When CONFIG_THREAD_STACK_MEM_MAPPED is enabled, each thread stack is mapped into the kernel virtual address space with a guard page on either side, and the mapping is released during abort cleanup. k_thread_abort_cleanup() in kernel/thread.c has two paths: a deferred one for self-abort, which stashes the mapping in thread_cleanup_stack_addr/thread_cleanup_stack_sz, and an immediate one for a thread aborted by some other thread. The immediate path called do_thread_cleanup(), which ignored its thread argument and only ever unmapped the stashed address — a value populated exclusively by the self-abort path. The mapped stack of a thread aborted by another thread was therefore never unmapped. Every k_thread_abort() of a non-current thread leaks the thread's stack region plus its two guard pages from the kernel virtual address space. Threads that end by returning from their entry function take the working self-abort path, so the leak is specific to explicit cancellation — k_thread_abort(), pthread_cancel(), osThreadTerminate(), or the kernel thread kill shell command. Both k_thread_create() and k_thread_abort() are system calls, so with CONFIG_USERSPACE an unprivileged user-mode thread that has been granted a thread object and a user-capable stack object can drive the leak from user mode, consuming a kernel-side resource it cannot otherwise touch. With CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_SIZE defaulting to 8 MB, a few hundred create/abort cycles exhaust the runtime mapping region. k_mem_map_phys_guard() then returns NULL, and map_thread_stack() guards that only with __ASSERT_NO_MSG(), which is compiled out of production builds; thread creation proceeds to write through a NULL-derived stack base and faults in kernel mode. The impact is a persistent denial of service — a kernel fatal error requiring a reboot — with no memory disclosure or corruption, and it is limited to configurations where memory-mapped thread stacks are enabled (x86 targets with X86_MMU and demand paging disabled, where the option is implied by default).14h CVE-2026-1252524.7 MÉD

——0FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a memory leak vulnerability in libavcodec/vaapi_decode.c that allows attackers to exhaust memory by supplying streams with slice parse errors. Attackers can craft H.264 or other VAAPI-decoded video where later slices fail to parse on every frame, continuously leaking VA parameter and slice buffers plus driver and heap memory.14h CVE-2026-1252454.7 MÉD

——0FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a memory leak vulnerability in ff_mjpeg_decode_sof() in libavcodec/mjpegdec.c, which overwrites the hwaccel_picture_private pointer without freeing it. Attackers can supply crafted MJPEG streams with repeated SOF markers or failing frames to leak hwaccel private data and hardware buffers under VAAPI or NVDEC decoding.14h CVE-2026-1252424.7 MÉD

——0FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a memory leak vulnerability in libavcodec/vdpau.c that allows attackers to exhaust heap memory by aborting pictures before end_frame. Attackers can supply crafted H.264 streams with malformed NAL units that repeatedly abandon pictures, leaking the bitstream_buffers table continuously and causing denial of service.14h CVE-2026-1252405.5 MÉD

——0FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a resource leak vulnerability in svt_jpegxs_dec_decode() in libsvtjpegxsdec.c that leaks decoder instances when ff_set_dimensions() rejects frame dimensions. Attackers can supply a crafted JPEG XS stream, for example in MPEG-TS, with oversized headers to repeatedly leak decoder threads and buffers, exhausting memory.14h CVE-2026-1252363.3 BAI

——0FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a memory leak vulnerability in alloc_frame() in libavcodec/vvc/refs.c that leaks SPS and PPS references when frame buffer allocation fails. Attackers can supply a crafted VVC (H.266) stream that repeatedly replaces parameter sets, steadily growing memory use and causing denial of service.17h
