[SECURITY] [DLA 1809-1] libav security update



Package        : libav
Version        : 6:11.12-1~deb8u7
CVE ID         : CVE-2018-15822 CVE-2019-11338


Two more security issues have been corrected in multiple demuxers and
decoders of the libav multimedia library.

CVE-2018-15822

    The flv_write_packet function in libavformat/flvenc.c in libav did
    not check for an empty audio packet, leading to an assertion failure.

CVE-2019-11338

    libavcodec/hevcdec.c in libav mishandled detection of duplicate first
    slices, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (NULL pointer dereference and out-of-array access) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via crafted HEVC data.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", these problems have been fixed in version
6:11.12-1~deb8u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your libav packages.
