Last modified

CVE-2026-125217 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.3/10 on the CVSS scale. FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an uninitialized memory use vulnerability in roq_dpcm_encode_frame() in libavcodec/roqaudioenc.c that encodes stale heap contents when flushed early. Attackers can supply short audio streams under eight frames for RoQ DPCM transcoding, causing DPCM-quantized uninitialized heap data from frame_buffer to leak into output packets.. EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
