I found a vulnerability of ffmpeg . And this could cause ffmpeg get into endless loop !

    ================== target system ======================

    ffmpeg version 3.1.2 Copyright (c)

    Ffmpeg -i poc.swf -b:v 640k -y output.ts

    ================== target web site ======================

    https://ffmpeg.org/

    ========================= key codes ======================

    swfdec.c: line 121
    zlib_refill()
    {
    retry:
    ret = inflate(z, Z_NO_FLUSH); // ret is always 2 (Z_NEED_DICT) , and other variates will not been changed.
    if (buf_size - z->avail_out == 0)
     goto retry;


Our understanding is that swfdec.c is part of the libavformat library and thus this issue may affect other applications 
that use that library.
