Title:DSA-1536 xine-lib -- several vulnerabilities
Description:Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xine, a media player library, allowed for a denial of service or arbitrary code execution, which could be exploited through viewing malicious content. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: The DMO_VideoDecoder_Open function does not set the biSize before use in a memcpy, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a buffer overflow and possibly execute arbitrary code (applies to sarge only). Array index error in the sdpplin_parse function allows remote RTSP servers to execute arbitrary code via a large streamid SDP parameter. Array index vulnerability in libmpdemux/demux_audio.c might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted FLAC tag, which triggers a buffer overflow (applies to etch only). Buffer overflow in the Matroska demuxer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a Matroska file with invalid frame sizes.
