Detail

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

- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

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

Software Description: - ffmpeg: multimedia player, server and encoder

Details:

It was discovered that FFmpeg 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 10.04 LTS:
libavcodec52 4:0.5.9-0ubuntu0.10.04.3
libavformat52 4:0.5.9-0ubuntu0.10.04.3

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