Description

Updated ffmpeg packages fix security vulnerabilities:

FFmpeg 2.x allows remote attackers to conduct cross-origin attacks and read
arbitrary files by using the concat protocol in an HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
M3U8 file, leading to an external HTTP request in which the URL string
contains the first line of a local file (CVE-2016-1897).

FFmpeg 2.x allows remote attackers to conduct cross-origin attacks and read
arbitrary files by using the subfile protocol in an HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
M3U8 file, leading to an external HTTP request in which the URL string
contains an arbitrary line of a local file (CVE-2016-1898).

Out-of-array read in FFmpeg before 2.4.13 in jpeg2000_decode_tile() in
jpeg2000dec.c (CVE-2016-2213).
