From Google's Project Zero:

WebRTC: Use-after-free in VP8 Block Decoding
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1575
Group: core-security → media-core-security
Again the same situation: Project Zero discloses and the Chromium bug is still not accessible.
Rank: 5
Priority: -- → P1
Dan can you check if you can find out the commit which fixed this upstream?
Flags: needinfo?(dveditz)
Assignee: nobody → dminor
Given the chrome bug # given in the GPZ bug it should be this one:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx/+/52add5896661d186dec284ed646a4b33b607d2c7
Flags: needinfo?(dveditz)
That looks very plausible. Dan can you look into cherry picking that fix into our affected versions?
Flags: needinfo?(dminor)
Since this is fixed on head and not the v1.7.0 release, we'll need to carry
the patch until the next release of libvpx.
Sure thing.

Bug 1480092 - Cherrypick rev 52add5896661d186dec284ed646a4b33b607d2c7; r=drno

[Security approval request comment]
How easily could an exploit be constructed based on the patch?
Not easily.

Do comments in the patch, the check-in comment, or tests included in the patch paint a bulls-eye on the security problem?
No, but the upstream patch mentions that it fixes a UAF.

Which older supported branches are affected by this flaw?
All.

If not all supported branches, which bug introduced the flaw?

Do you have backports for the affected branches? If not, how different, hard to create, and risky will they be?
No, but easy to create, this is a one liner.

How likely is this patch to cause regressions; how much testing does it need?
Unlikely, patch has already in use upstream.

:drno, the review in phabricator says I need to make revisions to proceed. Based on your LGTM, I assume you meant to leave a r+ but something went wrong. Please let me know.

Thanks for pinging me. That was pretty clearly a UI bug in phabricator. I did select "accept" and then typed my comment. Apparently typing my comment reset the drop down to the default value :-(
