In Bento4 1.5.1-627, AP4_DataBuffer::SetDataSize does not handle reallocation failures, leading to a memory copy into a NULL pointer. This is different from CVE-2018-20186.

Weakness

A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
