Description:
 The msrle_decode_8_16_24_32 function in msrledec.c in libavcodec in FFmpeg
 through 1.1.3 does not properly determine certain end pointers, which
 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array
 access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via
 crafted Microsoft RLE data.
