ffmpeg security update

FFmpeg is a complete and free Internet live audio and video broadcasting solution for Linux/Unix. It also includes a digital VCR. It can encode in real time in many formats including MPEG1 audio and video, MPEG4, h263, ac3, asf, avi, real, mjpeg, and flash.

Security Fix(es):

In FFmpeg version n6.1.1, specifically within the avcodec/speexdec.c module, a potential security vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of certain parameters when parsing Speex codec extradata. This vulnerability could lead to integer overflow conditions, potentially resulting in undefined behavior or crashes during the decoding process.(CVE-2024-35369)
