Use-After-Free in VP8 Block Decoding in WebRTC

There is a use-after-free in VP8 block decoding in WebRTC. The contents of the freed block is then treated a pointer, leading to a crash in WebRTC.

Mitigation:

Ensure that all memory is properly freed and not used after it has been freed.

==20098==ABORTING

To reproduce this issue:

1) replace video/replay.cc with the attached version, and build it with asan (ninja -C out/asan video_replay). Note that this file adds the ability to load a full receiver config to the video replay tool, I'm hoping to eventually get this change committed to WebRTC.

2) Download the attached files config3.txt and heapuaf

3) run video_replay --input_file  heapuaf  --config_file config3.txt

This issue affects any browser that supports VP8, and can be reached by loading a single webpage (though some browsers will prompt for permissions). It also affects native clients (such as mobile applications) that use webrtc and support VP8, though the user has to place or answer a video call for their client to be in the state where this issue is reachable.
