CVE-2017-14223 - log back

CVE-2017-14223 created at 25 Sep 2019 19:31:40
Severity	+ Low
Remote	+ Local
Type	+ Denial of service
Description	+ In libavformat/asfdec_f.c in FFmpeg 3.3.3, a DoS in asf_build_simple_index() due to lack of an EOF (End of File) check might cause huge CPU consumption. When a crafted ASF file, which claims a large "ict" field in the header but does not contain sufficient backing data, is provided, the for loop would consume huge CPU and memory resources, since there is no EOF check inside the loop.
