Debian Bug : 1106689
It was discovered that a double-free in the encoder of libvpx, a
multimedia library for the VP8 and VP9 video codecs, may result in
denial of service and potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.12.0-1+deb12u4.
We recommend that you upgrade your libvpx packages.
