CVE-2023-5217: Heap buffer overflow in libvpx

Specific handling of an attacker-controlled VP8 media stream could lead to a heap buffer overflow in the content process. We are aware of this issue being exploited in other products in the wild.

I'm not sure if it affects system libvpx configuration.

Yes, it's a libvpx vulnerability. See #18651.

The only change, apart fro mthe version number, is in shipped libvpx

comment:5 by Xi Ruoyao, 18 months ago

So if we use the system libvpx like the book recommends, there is no reason to upgrade...
