Last modified
CVE-2026-125227 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7/10 on the CVSS scale. FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains an integer overflow in cbs_jpeg_write_scan() in libavcodec/cbs_jpeg.c that causes a heap buffer overflow on 32-bit builds. Attackers can supply a crafted MJPEG/JPEG stream with a scan of 512 MiB or more, processed by CBS bitstream filters like filter_units, to corrupt the heap or crash the application.. EPSS estimates a 0.14% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
