FFmpeg through 9.0.2 Heap Buffer Overflow via RISC-V Vector diff_bytes Routine

Published Nov 9, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 7.3 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
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.
