Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 12.10 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - Ubuntu 11.10

Summary:

Libav could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file.

Software Description: - libav: Multimedia player, server, encoder and transcoder

Details:

It was discovered that Libav incorrectly handled certain malformed media files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted media file, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 12.10:
libavcodec53 6:0.8.5-0ubuntu0.12.10.1
libavformat53 6:0.8.5-0ubuntu0.12.10.1

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
libavcodec53 4:0.8.5-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
libavformat53 4:0.8.5-0ubuntu0.12.04.1

Ubuntu 11.10:
libavcodec53 4:0.7.6-0ubuntu0.11.10.3
libavformat53 4:0.7.6-0ubuntu0.11.10.3

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

Title: Google Chrome before 23.0.1271.97 does not properly perform AAC decoding
Description: Google Chrome before 23.0.1271.97, and Libav 0.7.x before 0.7.7 and 0.8.x before 0.8.5, do not properly perform AAC decoding, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to "an off-by-one overwrite when switching to LTP profile from MAIN."
