Detail
| demux_qt.c in xine-lib 1.1.12, and other 1.1.15 and earlier versions, does not validate the count field before calling calloc for STSD_ATOM atom allocation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted media file. |

| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 47741 | xine-lib src/demuxers/demux_qt.c Multiple Overflows Multiple overflows exists in xine-lib. The QT demuxer (src/demuxers/demux_qt.c) fails to properly sanitize input to the parse_moov_atom() function, parse_reference_atom() function, when handling compressed MOV (CMOV_ATOM) files and when allocating STSD_ATOM atoms resulting in an overflow. With a specially crafted file or request, an attacker can cause the execution of arbitrary code or force process termination. |
