Last modified
CVE-2026-125228 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.3/10 on the CVSS scale. FFmpeg before 8.1.3 and 9.x before 9.0.2 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in put_vector() in libavcodec/vorbisenc.c when NaN samples leave the codebook entry at -1. Attackers can supply audio with NaN float samples to the native Vorbis encoder, causing heap reads before arrays that crash the application or leak adjacent heap memory into output.. EPSS estimates a 0.12% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
