Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in ffmpeg, a multimedia

for QDM2, VP5, VP6, VMD and SVQ1 files could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 4:0.5.6-3.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 4:0.7.3-1 of the libav source package.
