    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the FFmpeg multimedia     framework, which could result in denial of service or potentially the     execution of arbitrary code if malformed files/streams are processed.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 7:5.1.5-0+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your ffmpeg packages.
