Ted Meyer 53cd2c9f2a avformat/mov: Check read size for opus extradata
in mov_read_dops, `size` bytes is allocated for
`st->codecpar->extradata`, but ff_alloc_extradata doesn't memset, so the
contents of that buffer are just old heap data. If `avio_read` reads
fewer bytes than were requested, uninitialized data can still be left in
the extradata buffer, which is operated on by AV_WL16A and AV_WL32A.

I think the best solution here is to just check the read size and ensure
it's filling the extradata buffer in it's entirety, or erroring out if
there isn't enough data left.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

The online documentation is available in the main website and in the wiki.
