Detail
| Luigi Auriemma discovered several buffer overflows in alsaplayer, a PCM player designed for ALSA, that can lead to a crash of the application and maybe worse outcome. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.99.76-0.3sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your alsaplayer package. |

| 27884 | AlsaPlayer PlaylistWindow.cpp GTK Playlist Multiple Function Overflow |
| 27883 | AlsaPlayer http.c reconnect() Function Location HTTP Header Overflow A remote overflow exists in AlsaPlayer. AlsaPlayer fails to handle long values (over 1024 bytes) in HTTP Response Header 'Location' when redirected by a web server resulting in a stack based overflow. With a specially crafted HTTP response, an attacker can cause deny of service or even execute arbitrary code resulting in a loss of integrity, and/or availability. |
