#1603 closed defect (fixed)

The array mvFieldNeighbours of the class MergeCtx has overflowed.

Description

In the function MergeItem::importMergeInfo, the variable mergeIdx becomes larger than MRG_MAX_NUM_CANDS and overflows the array mergeCtx.mvFieldNeighbours.
This seems to occur when the function importMergeInfo is called from EncCu::addMmvdCandsToPruningList, so the value of mmvdIdx.val in the argument of mmvdMerge->importMergeInfo appears to be incorrect.

Thanks for the report. Could you provide the command line setting and encoding log of an overflow case so that we could reproduce the issue?

Looks like the following shouldn't be executed when mergeItemType is equal to MergeItemType::MMVD because the value of mergeIdx is too large. Note that all these fields are set later in the function.

  if (mergeItemType != MergeItemType::GPM)
  {
    mvField[0][REF_PIC_LIST_0] = mergeCtx.mvFieldNeighbours[mergeIdx][REF_PIC_LIST_0];
    mvField[0][REF_PIC_LIST_1] = mergeCtx.mvFieldNeighbours[mergeIdx][REF_PIC_LIST_1];
    interDir = mergeCtx.interDirNeighbours[mergeIdx];
    bcwIdx = mergeCtx.bcwIdx[mergeIdx];
    useAltHpelIf = mergeCtx.useAltHpelIf[mergeIdx];
  }

Frank is right. We should not do it for MMVD. I just submitted a fix https://vcgit.hhi.fraunhofer.de/jvet/VVCSoftware_VTM/-/merge_requests/2626. @Haruhiko, please check whether it solves the issue. Thanks.
