<p>
|
|
Buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the getauthfromURL() and http_open()
|
|
functions have been reported by Carlos Barros. Additionally, the Gentoo
|
|
Linux Sound Team fixed additional boundary checks which were found to
|
|
be lacking.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By enticing a user to open a malicious playlist or URL or making use of
|
|
a specially-crafted symlink, an attacker could possibly execute
|
|
arbitrary code with the rights of the user running mpg123.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All mpg123 users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/mpg123-0.59s-r5"</code>
