|
Stefan Cornelius and Reimar Doffinger of Secunia Research discovered
|
|
several boundary errors in the functions cddb_query_parse(),
|
|
cddb_parse_matches_list() and cddb_read_parse(), each allowing for a
|
|
stack-based buffer overflow.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
|
|
with malicious CDDB entries, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running MPlayer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0.20070622"</code>
