Description
FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in ff_llvidenc_diff_bytes_rvv() that allows attackers to corrupt heap memory by triggering negative length values in the Huffyuv encoder. Attackers can supply RGB video narrower than 8 or 16 pixels for huffyuv transcoding on RVV-enabled RISC-V builds, causing writes past the encoder's temp buffer.
