> memory allocation can occur here and there

What about HW decoders? Of video formats (that are much more complex than image decoders)? Such as MPEG, H.264, H.265, VP9, AV1 and similar. If memory allocation is needed here and there, I guess there is always known maximum size of such allocation in advance. Written in the spec. Think of at chip design time, or at software decoder compile time. How else would HW decoders be even possible?

Also: Hey Google, do you even fuzz-test? Your own stuff?
