Detail

Stack-based buffer overflow in VideoLAN VLC media player 0.5.0 through 0.9.5 might allow user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via the header of an invalid CUE image file, related to modules/access/vcd/cdrom.c. NOTE: this identifier originally included an issue related to RealText, but that issue has been assigned a separate identifier, CVE-2008-5036.

Title: DSA-1819-1 vlc -- several vulnerabilities
Description: Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in vlc, a multimedia player and streamer. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2008-1768 Drew Yao discovered that multiple integer overflows in the MP4 demuxer, Real demuxer and Cinepak codec can lead to the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2008-1769 Drew Yao discovered that the Cinepak codec is prone to a memory corruption, which can be triggered by a crafted Cinepak file. CVE-2008-1881 Luigi Auriemma discovered that it is possible to execute arbitrary code via a long subtitle in an SSA file. CVE-2008-2147 It was discovered that vlc is prone to a search path vulnerability, which allows local users to perform privilege escalations. CVE-2008-2430 Alin Rad Pop discovered that it is possible to execute arbitrary code when opening a WAV file containing a large fmt chunk. CVE-2008-3794 Pınar YanardaÄ discovered that it is possible to execute arbitrary code when opening a crafted mmst link. CVE-2008-4686 Tobias Klein discovered that it is possible to execute arbitrary code when opening a crafted .ty file. CVE-2008-5032 Tobias Klein discovered that it is possible to execute arbitrary code when opening an invalid CUE image file with a crafted header. For the oldstable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.6-svn20061012.debian-5.1+etch3. For the stable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.6.h-4+lenny2, which was already included in the lenny release. For the testing distribution and the unstable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.6.h-5. We recommend that you upgrade your vlc packages.
