Descriptions

The EBML_FindNextElement function in ebmlmain.c in libebml2 through 2012-08-26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Null pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted mkv file.

La función EBML_FindNextElement en ebmlmain.c en libebml2 hasta 2012-08-26 permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (desreferencia de puntero NULL y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) mediante un archivo mkv manipulado.

mkvalidator version 0.5.1 suffers from multiple denial of service vulnerabilities leveraging libebml2 and mkclean.
