libvpx is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. An integer overflow flaw, leading to arbitrary memory writes, was found in libvpx. An attacker could create a specially-crafted video encoded using the VP8 codec that, when played by a victim with an application using libvpx (such as Totem), would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code.
