<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Alin Rad Pop from Secunia Research reported an integer overflow when
|
|
processing CAF description chunks, leading to a heap-based buffer
|
|
overflow.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted CAF
|
|
file, resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the
|
|
privileges of the user running the application.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>

There is no known workaround at this time.

|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|

<code>
|

# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libsndfile-1.0.19"</code>
