CVE-2026-120243

6.8 mediumEPSS 0.1%

Medium (6.8). EPSS 0.1% estimated probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.

FFmpeg 2.0 through 9.0.2 contains a use of uninitialized variable vulnerability in the Go2Meeting decoder that allows attackers to leak stack memory through out-of-range palette indices. Attackers can craft a G2M3/G2M4 stream with a short Kempf palette so kempf_restore_buf() copies uninitialized stack bytes, including pointers or stack guards, into decoded output.
