A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in FFmpeg 2.0. This affects the function add_yblock of the file libavcodec/snow.h. The manipulation leads to memory corruption. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
