There is no fixed version for FFmpeg.

Overview

FFmpeg is a FFmpeg static library ruby binding that is compiled for iOS and CocoaPods.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Write. A malicious user can use this to cause a system crash or to overwrite variables currently in the buffer. This can be done using the ipvideo_decode_block_opcode_0xA function in libavcodec/interplayvideo.c and the avcodec_align_dimensions2 function in libavcodec/utils.c.
