CVE-2026-125069
Last modified
CVE-2026-125069 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.7/10 on the CVSS scale. FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the Motion Pixels decoder because mp_decode_frame() ignores init_get_bits() failure. Attackers supplying a roughly 2^28-byte packet through the libavcodec API overflow the bit count, causing reads from a NULL buffer that crash the process.. EPSS estimates a 0.17% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
