CVE-2026-125269
Discovered by AISLEPUBLISHEDCWE-415
Description
FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a double free vulnerability in libavcodec/cbs_sei.c where cbs_sei_delete_message() leaves a stale extension_data reference that ff_cbs_sei_add_message() reuses. Attackers can supply a crafted H.264 stream with a display orientation SEI message followed by payload extension data, processed by h264_metadata with display_orientation=insert, to corrupt heap memory.
