From: Martin Storsjö Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2017 00:27:43 +0000 (+0800) Subject: flvdec: Check the avio_seek return value after reading a metadata packet X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=15537c904ec96e4d2e9435100d403283a5fed029;p=ffmpeg flvdec: Check the avio_seek return value after reading a metadata packet merge from libav: 585dc1aecef0371ad6f16cb3750ae2a6da9cf00a If the metadata packet is corrupted, flv_read_metabody can accidentally read past the start of the next packet. If the start of the next packet had been flushed out of the IO buffer, we would be unable to seek to the right position (on a nonseekable stream). Prefer to clearly error out instead of silently trying to read from a desynced stream which will only be interpreted as garbage. --- diff --git a/libavformat/flvdec.c b/libavformat/flvdec.c index 2e70352c537..2d89bef15f2 100644 --- a/libavformat/flvdec.c +++ b/libavformat/flvdec.c @@ -1015,7 +1015,13 @@ retry: "Skipping flv packet: type %d, size %d, flags %d.\n", type, size, flags); skip: - avio_seek(s->pb, next, SEEK_SET); + if (avio_seek(s->pb, next, SEEK_SET) != next) { + // This can happen if flv_read_metabody above read past + // next, on a non-seekable input, and the preceding data has + // been flushed out from the IO buffer. + av_log(s, AV_LOG_ERROR, "Unable to seek to the next packet\n"); + return AVERROR_INVALIDDATA; + } ret = FFERROR_REDO; goto leave; }
