9 security issues in bullseye high

There are 9 open security issues in bullseye.

7 important issues:

CVE-2026-45382: libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Prior to version 1.0.19, `decoder_context::decode_slice_unit_tiles` (libde265/decctx.cc:920) reads `pps.CtbAddrRStoTS[ctbAddrRS]` at line 966 where `ctbAddrRS = ctbY * ctbsWidth + ctbX` is computed from PPS-supplied `colBd[]`/`rowBd[]` arrays without validating the result against `CtbAddrRStoTS.size() == sps->PicSizeInCtbsY`. A malformed PPS that passes `set_derived_values` but encodes geometry inconsistent with the SPS produces a `ctbAddrRS` past the allocation, causing a 4-byte heap-buffer-overflow READ. Version 1.0.19 fixes the issue.
CVE-2026-45383: libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Versions prior to 1.0.19 have a heap buffer overflow (out-of-bounds READ) exists in `decoder_context::decode_slice_unit_WPP()` in `libde265/decctx.cc`. When decoding a WPP (Wavefront Parallel Processing) HEVC slice, `ctbAddrRS` is computed as `ctbRow * ctbsWidth` inside the entry-point loop. If the PPS/SPS headers are crafted so that this value exceeds `pps.CtbAddrRStoTS.size()`, the subsequent array access `pps.CtbAddrRStoTS[ctbAddrRS]` reads past the end of the allocated vector, triggering a heap-buffer-overflow confirmed by AddressSanitizer. Version 1.0.19 patches the issue.
CVE-2026-49295: libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Prior to version 1.0.20, a crafted H.265 bitstream can cause an out-of-bounds array write in `decoder_context::process_reference_picture_set()` (`libde265/decctx.cc:1376`). The root cause is a missing aggregate bound check on predicted short-term reference picture set entries. Individual list sizes are validated, but the combined count after predicted RPS construction can exceed the 16-entry `PocStFoll` array, writing at index 16. Version 1.0.20 patches the issue.
CVE-2026-49337: libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Prior to version 1.0.20, a crafted sequence of H.265 NAL units causes `decoder_context::read_slice_NAL()` (`libde265/decctx.cc:481`) to attach slice headers to a finished picture object that has no active image unit, resulting in attacker-controlled unbounded heap growth. The retained headers are never freed until the picture is released, which may not happen during continuous streaming. Version 1.0.20 patches the issue.
CVE-2026-49346: libde265 is an open source implementation of the h.265 video codec. Prior to version 1.1.0, a crafted H.265 bitstream with large SPS dimensions and 16-bit bit depth causes a signed integer overflow in `de265_image_get_buffer()` (`libde265/image.cc:128`). The overflow wraps the plane allocation size to a small value (~1 KB), but the subsequent `fill_image()` call computes the real size using `size_t`, writing ~4 GB into the undersized heap buffer. Version 1.1.0 patches the issue.

testing migrations

This package is part of the ongoing testing transition known as auto-ffmpeg. Please avoid uploads unrelated to this transition, they would likely delay it and require supplementary work from the release managers. On the other hand, if your package has problems preventing it to migrate to testing, please fix them as soon as possible. You can probably find supplementary information in the debian-release archives or in the corresponding release.debian.org bug.
excuses:
- Migration status: Blocked. Can't migrate due to a non-migratable dependency. Check status below.
- Blocked by: ffmpeg
- Migration status for libde265 (1.1.2-1 to 1.1.3-1): BLOCKED: Cannot migrate due to another item, which is blocked (please check which dependencies are stuck)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Depends: libde265 ffmpeg (not considered)
- ∙ ∙ Invalidated by dependency
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/libd/libde265.html
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for gst-plugins-bad1.0/1.28.7-1: i386: Pass ♻
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for libde265/1.1.3-1: amd64: Pass, arm64: Pass, armhf: Pass, i386: Pass, ppc64el: Pass, riscv64: Pass
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on amd64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on arm64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on armhf - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on i386 - info
- ∙ ∙ Required age reduced by 3 days because of autopkgtest
