New ffmpeg releases contain a couple of security fixes:

1) An error within the QDM2 decoder (libavcodec/qdm2.c) can be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

2) An integer overflow error within the "vp3_dequant()" function
(libavcodec/vp3.c) can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

3) Errors within the "av_image_fill_pointers()", the
"vp5_parse_coeff()", and the "vp6_parse_coeff()" functions can be
exploited to trigger out-of-bounds reads.


Please assign CVEs.


Maybe someone wants to have a look if other issues in those
releases are security relevant:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git&a=shortlog&h=n0.7.8

This would be the original advisory http://ffmpeg.org/#pr7dot8and8dot7
correct?

It is the upstream confirmation - at least it's about the same bugs.
