CVE-2026-75143FFmpeg Heap Buffer Overflow via RIST Protocol Reader

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects FFmpeg. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

FFmpeg before commit 1c10bcc contains a heap buffer overflow in the RIST protocol reader (libavformat/librist.c). librist_read() ignored its size argument and copied the full received payload length into the caller-provided destination buffer, overflowing it when the payload exceeds the destination size. This is reachable via the async:rist:// URL scheme, where the async wrapper supplies a smaller buffer than the received payload. A remote RIST sender can trigger the overflow by sending a packet whose payload exceeds the caller buffer size.
