Detail
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the rmff_dump_cont function in input/libreal/rmff.c in xine-lib 1.1.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the SDP Abstract attribute, related to the rmff_dump_header function and related to disregarding the max field. Although originally a xine-lib issue, also affects MPlayer due to code similarity. (CVE-2008-0225) Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the rmff_dump_cont function in input/libreal/rmff.c in xine-lib 1.1.9 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the SDP (1) Title, (2) Author, or (3) Copyright attribute, related to the rmff_dump_header function, different vectors than CVE-2008-0225. Although originally a xine-lib issue, also affects MPlayer due to code similarity. (CVE-2008-0238) Array index error in libmpdemux/demux_mov.c in MPlayer 1.0 rc2 and earlier might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a QuickTime MOV file with a crafted stsc atom tag. (CVE-2008-0485) Array index vulnerability in libmpdemux/demux_audio.c in MPlayer 1.0rc2 and SVN before r25917, and possibly earlier versions, as used in Xine-lib 1.1.10, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted FLAC tag, which triggers a buffer overflow. (CVE-2008-0486) Buffer overflow in stream_cddb.c in MPlayer 1.0rc2 and SVN before r25824 allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a CDDB database entry containing a long album title. (CVE-2008-0629) Buffer overflow in url.c in MPlayer 1.0rc2 and SVN before r25823 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted URL that prevents the IPv6 parsing code from setting a pointer to NULL, which causes the buffer to be reused by the unescape code. (CVE-2008-0630) The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues. |

| Title: | DSA-1496 mplayer -- buffer overflows | ||
| Description: | Several buffer overflows have been discovered in the MPlayer movie player, which might lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Felipe Manzano and Anibal Sacco discovered a buffer overflow in the demuxer for MOV files. Reimar Doeffinger discovered a buffer overflow in the FLAC header parsing. Adam Bozanich discovered a buffer overflow in the CDDB access code. Adam Bozanich discovered a buffer overflow in URL parsing. The old stable distribution (sarge) doesn't contain mplayer. | ||
