|
|
xine-ui is a skin-based user interface for xine. xine is a free
|
|
multimedia player. It plays CDs, DVDs, and VCDs, and can also decode
|
|
other common multimedia formats.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Due to the improper handling and use of format strings, the
|
|
errors_create_window() function in errors.c does not safely write data
|
|
to memory.
|
|
</p>

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media file
|
|
with xine-ui, and possibly execute arbitrary code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|

<p>
|
|
All xine-ui users should upgrade to the latest version:
