Nicholas Carlini 3e8bec7871 avformat/mpegts: fix descriptor accounting across multiple IOD descriptors
pmt_cb() passes mp4_descr + mp4_descr_count as the output base but
MAX_MP4_DESCR_COUNT (16) as the capacity, not the remaining capacity.
init_MP4DescrParseContext() resets d->descr_count to 0 on every call,
so the bounds check at parse_MP4ESDescrTag compares a fresh 0 against
16 regardless of the shifted base.

A PMT with two IOD descriptors of 16 ESDescrs each will crash. The first
fills the buffer mp4_descr[0..15], and then the second writes
mp4_descr[16..31] -- 1152 bytes past the end of the stack.

This change passes the remaining capacity instead of always passing 16.
The writeback in mp4_read_iods is incremented so the caller's running
count is preserved.

Fixes: stack-buffer-overflow

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.
